It's United's first shot at one of the four trophies they can still take home this year (U.S. Open Cup, Eastern Conference Champions, and MLS Cup Champions)

"This is a legacy builder. This is Arthur Blank's legacy. When you look down the line 30 years from now and you talk about how soccer has caught on in America, they're going to point to Atlanta United as one of the seed teams that helped grow the game of soccer."
