In-form Atlanta United extended their winning streak after upstaging Orlando City 1-0 in MLS.
Atlanta won their fourth successive league match thanks to Hector Villalba’s stunning 86th-minute winner in Orlando on Friday.
Meeting for the first time since Atlanta’s introduction into MLS, Villalba downed Kaka and the hosts with a thunderbolt of a strike four minutes from the end.
United States international and former Aston Villa goalkeeper Brad Guzan made his debut in the win, denying Kaka late to keep a clean sheet.
Worth the wait.
What. A. Goal. #ORLvATL https://t.co/glMYWtwyjA
