Welcome to Atlanta United lore, Yamil Asad.
The Argentine winger scored the first goal in the MLS expansion club's history Sunday, steering home a cross from Tyrone Mears in the 25th minute of Atlanta United's opener against the New York Red Bulls.
Gerardo Martino's side kicked off in front of a sell-out crowd of some 55,000 at Bobby Dodd Stadium, with more than 33,000 of those fans season ticket holders.
