I...think Richie Laryea is quite fortunate Chris Penso didn't award a penalty there

Atlanta United's lineups vs. Philadelphia Union
First MLS start for MatΓas Galarza and first start β and first appearance β of 2026 for Stian Gregersen means Steven Alzate and Juan Berrocal (questionable on the injury report) out of the XI.
Saba starts on the bench for the second straight match.

Home teams started 17-1-3 and have gone 9-11-3 since. That includes road wins by two truly terrible teams (Montreal & Toronto) today.
Once againβ¦
No one can predict this league
Nice sequence
I mean, that Academy talent has to come from somewhere

New from me @scarvesandspikes.com - Tata Martino has preached a long-term vision for Atlanta Unitedβs improvement. After an 0-3-0 start to 2026, the focus needs to be on immediate improvement and whether or not heβs willing to make needed changes.

. @atlpilgrim.bsky.social and I look back at Atlanta United's 3-2 loss to Real Salt Lake tonight at Mercedes-Benz Stadium
scarvesandspikes.com/2026/03/07/a...
Interesting at the end, but...it's still a loss for Atlanta United. 0-3-0.
4th official shows 6 minutes and...I don't think Pablo Mastroeni was very happy with that decision
Final roll of the dice for Tata Martino. Enea Mihaj sits for Sergio Santos in the 86th.
Jacob and Alzate out in favor of Matt Edwards and Saba Lobjanidze. About 12 minutes plus stoppage left
Enea Mihaj has had some nice last-ditch tackles in the final third this evening for Atlanta United.
ALEXEY MIRANCHUK BRACE! 3-2 IN THE 74TH MINUTE!
MatΓas Galarza making his MLS debut in the 59th as Cooper Sanchez takes a seat.
RSL's three goal scorers tonight have been two supplemental roster players and an off-roster player, in case anyone was wondering
Halftime: Atlanta United trails RSL in its home opener 3-1.
Good news: Atlanta ended its goalless streak
Bad news: *gestures at scoreboard*
Juan Berrocal has been absolutely shocking tonight. Two goals on him tonight.
Welp 3-1 RSL. Zavier Gozo with a well-taken effort to be far.
ALEXEY MIRANCHUK WITH ATLANTA UNITED'S FIRST GOAL OF 2026!
Oh no. Juan Berrocal just beaten for pace by Sergio Solans and it's 1-0 RSL in the 24th minute.
Miguel Almiron has found the Fountain of Youth, apparently
Lucas Hoyos still looks uncomfortable with the ball at his feet in pressure situations
Some promising possession for Atlanta United. I like it.
Miggy had a terrific run down the right channel but the cross is dealt with in the box. Looked a bit like old Miggy for a bit.
