A thought on the sinking of Atlanta United in Columbus



[ad_1]

The off-season start of Atlanta's MLS season was extended to four with a 2-0 loss on a miserable, stormy night in Columbus. The crew scored two goals. The Five Stripes have grabbed none. Here is a main thought on a joke of a match:

It was rain

Everyone likes a good excuse. Why face reality when we can pledge the reason why something comes from an outside force to feel better? Atlanta United did not lose to the Columbus Crew because it was not good enough. They clearly lost because of the rain. The rain bounced the ball in one direction and not in the other. The waterlogged ground has brought the crew to finish their chances and Atlanta to miss theirs. The hilarious and dangerous playing conditions prevented Frank de Boer from winning a league match since October 2016, when Inter Milan had beaten a Turin team with Josef Martinez on the bench. The team will use the weather as an excuse for not explaining why they did not win the MLS in four attempts. They will use this as an excuse to explain why they died last in the East after a month of play. The manager will use the conditions as an excuse to explain why his team scored only two goals in four matches of championship. I will use the rain as an excuse not to put a lot of effort into this blog post. I will use the waterlogged field as an excuse not to be called "whinny" by a Facebook idiot after honestly explaining why Atlanta United was not very good this season. It was all rain.
