“Peak MLS” of the week: Cincinnati's stunner in ATL

We all remember MLS Cup 2018, right? How Atlanta United’s blistering pace in transition and lethal directness drove a stake of sadness right into the heart of the Portland Timbers and their fans? Despite the intense anguish of that game, I remember watching that Atlanta team and truly believing they were the most entertaining team I ever saw play in MLS. I begrudgingly respected them as one heck of a soccer team.

Well this year, that heck of a soccer team has only scored one goal in MLS and hasn’t won a game yet.
