Atlanta United Fc has made it to the MLS Cup! The MLS Cup is comparable to baseball’s World Series or football’s Super Bowl. This Saturday, Atlanta United will play the Portland Timbers in a battle for the ultimate championship. It is sure to be a rowdy game, especially for Five Stripes supporters, as the game is being held in none other than Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia!
Road to the MLS Cup
Atlanta United has had a stellar season. The new team is only in its second season, making the playoffs both years. This year, Atlanta earned a bye in the first round of the playoffs. In the semi-finals, NYC FC was ousted by Atlanta, in an aggregate of two games. Atlanta prevailed by one total point. And in two exciting matches for the Eastern Finals, Atlanta beat the New York Red Bulls with an aggregate score of 3-1.
Atlanta finished the season with 21 wins. Only six draws and seven losses occurred. And, Atlanta United scored 70 goals over the season! To say the Five Stripes are on their way to being one of the best teams in the MLS is an understatement!
