Atlanta. Oh, Atlanta. If LAFC had their own Simpsons’ Tree House of Horrors, it would be Mercedes Benz Stadium. The Black and Gold traveled back to the ATL to take on Atlanta United, and, here on Episode 304, let Filly and the Scarf tell you why, for the first time, LAFC didn’t get the Benz in Atlanta!
After a chippy first half that saw plenty of yellows and a few missed foul calls, the action really heated up at the hour mark. Brad Guzan sweeps the leg on Mateusz Bogusz, earning an eerily similar red to the Portland match. It definitely WAS deja vu all over again, as Bogusz found more Mati magic, slotting the free kick by backup Josh Cohen to give the away side a 1-0 advantage.
From there, as Taylor Twellman put it, LAFC got… worse. Way, way worse. Despite the man advantage, it was the now-Thiago Almada led home side that dictated pace. A couple of near misses and continuous pressure led to LAFC’s own red card, on (surprise) Eduard Atuesta for his second yellow of the match. Luckily, Atlanta couldn’t capitalize 10v10, and, for the first time, LAFC leaves ATL with all three points.
Also on this episode, Filly gets a hat… for Nina’s birthday and for America. You have to see it.
It’s a busy week for the Defenders and LAFC, with matches on both Wednesday and Saturday. Tune in for all the fun!
