Atlanta United hosted New York Red Bulls at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in what was a physical matchup between the two Eastern Conference clubs. After a chippy match where 30 fouls were committed and 10 yellow cards issued, six yellow cards in the first half alone, Atlanta United held onto an early 1-0 lead from a Giorgos Giakoumakis goal to earn the club's first-ever regular season win over Red Bulls.
Atlanta United joined Major League Soccer in 2017 and won the 2018 MLS Cup in just its second season, the earliest an expansion team has won the title since 1998. The club has set multiple league records including season tickets sales (36,000-plus), single-season average (53,002) and total home attendance (901,033). Owned by Arthur M. Blank, Atlanta United plays its home matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. For more information about Atlanta United, including how to purchase season tickets, visit: www.atlutd.com.
