The Resurgens Kit era got off to a strong start for Atlanta United on Sunday night. In the debut of the club's new community kit, the team played Eastern Conference foe Orlando City SC to a 2-0 victory at Mercedes-Benz Stadium behind goals from Saba Lobjanidze and Giorgos Giakoumakis.
It's the second consecutive win for Atlanta United and the team's first clean sheet of the season.
"It was a game more grinding, fighting, competing, and never giving up, and the players did well," head coach Gonzalo Pineda said in the post-match press conference. "Some positives, but we have the reminder that we need to do better."
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.
