New York pays Atlanta as a starter

soccer/mls/story">

The Red Bulls kicked off the “MLS is Back” tournament with a 1-0 victory over Atlanta United on Saturday night in Orlando.

This meeting was broadcast on our airwaves.

A quick goal from Florian Valot was enough for the New Yorkers to win in the Group E opener.

In the fourth minute, the French midfielder took advantage of a good stint from Kaku to slip past goalkeeper Brad Guzan on his own. He then foiled it with a low-to-the-ground strike.

The Red Bulls are wasting no time! –


The winners came very close to doubling their lead in the 25th minute, but this time Guzan had the last laugh. The goalkeeper followed the action well and was well positioned to make the save on a point blank shot from forward Daniel Royer.

In total, Guzan faced four shots on target, as many as his opposite, Daniel Jensen.

For their next clash, the Red Bulls will face off against the Columbus Crew. Atlanta will face FC Cincinnati. These two duels will be played next Thursday.

When they analyzed the forces present in this group, our experts Frédéric Lord and Vincent Destouches did not hesitate to identify Atlanta United as the club that stands out from the crowd, despite the absence of star striker Josef Martinez.

It was the seventh regular season game (ninth in all competitions) between the two clubs.

Before the game, the Red Bulls were 4-0-2 (5-1-2) against their opponents of the day, which they outscored 11-5 in goals in the regular season.
