The 2021 season is over for Atlanta United, losing to NYFC 2-0 in a disappointing playoff match on the road. Evidence, just playing into a playoff spot was not enough for Pineda to give the team a more realistic chance to advance to MLS Cup. NYFC went on to win the MLS cup, but in this episode we look back on the moment against NYFC and where things broke down, especially in a terrible second half.
We start by drinking some red wine as always, enjoying an Italian Tuscan. Mike brings the ATLONFIRE Trivia back to the table and we discuss some statistics each player had. The best goal of the season, not sure, but Barco’s free kick, Araujo’s half field run and Martinez volly magic all make the list. We talk about it all.
