💪The upcoming unified match

🖐️ Our takes

1: Champions of XG, you’ll never sing that. That about sums up the first half. It wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t great. We looked organized defensively and pretty average in attack. We’re just not clinical on the chances we should be burying.

2: We improved in attack in the 2nd half. The chances we started to create or happen upon came from quick direct play and quite frankly, just trying. We stopped looking for the perfect opportunity before shooting or just putting a dangerous ball into the danger area. Waiting for the perfect opportunity is something we do too often.

3: Alexey is a talented player. Little hard to see how this particular player makes this particular team better. He’s not a quick with his feet playmaking 10 & that has been how ATL through the years has found success. We might not see how good he can be until this team is really overhauled in the offseason.

4: Ask a fan what an ATL goal looks like. Doubt anyone has a good answer. Still, bout time Fortune gets a little fortunate. Just another name in a long list of kids we have asked to grow up quickly. He’s been a bright spot and like we said last week, play the kid higher up, he’s a dynamic threat that isn’t afraid to have a go.

5: 1 Nil?? In this economy? Said it before, will say it again, 1-0 wins are, in a lot of ways, more impressive than multi goal wins. It doesn’t happen often with us but it’s usually a result of balanced play and that’s what we saw tonight, particularly in the 2nd half.
