#ATLUTD loses 2-0. It is 0-2 this season. It has yet to score this season. It has allowed 4 goals.

Berrocal taking a FK is interesting. We don't get to watch that anymore after #ATLUTD training sessions.

Almiron with #ATLUTD first shot on goal. Comes in 89th minute.

#ATLUTD has taken 1 shot this half. It has 4 in match. 0 on goal.

Werner in space, beats Mihaj, crosses to Bouda, who had outrun Jacob. #ATLUTD

Now #ATLUTD trails 2-0 in the 79th minute.

First really nice sequence of passes by #ATLUTD tonight. Ends with Almiron crossing it to the keeper.

#ATLUTD without a shot on goal through 65 minutes. This looks a lot like it did under previous 2 managers.

Miranchuk and Muyumba on for Hernandez and Lobhanidze. Werner on. #ATLUTD

Hoyos stops a 1-on-1 to keep #ATLUTD down 1-0

Great diagonal from Jacob to Hernandez to Almiron, who turns it over #ATLUTD

Almiron with another turnover. #ATLUTD

#ATLUTD being protagonists was another buzz word this week.

#ATLUTD has played 135 minutes. It hasn't surpassed 1.0xG yet.

Halftime. #ATLUTD trails 1-0. Could be worse. Hasn't put a shot on goal. Has 3 shots. SJ has 7 shots, 3 on goal. #ATLUTD has created 3 chances.

San Jose, pressing with 2, creates a turnover that leads to a CK. #ATLUTD

#ATLUTD hasn't put a shot on goal in first 40 minutes.

Another unmarked SJ player. This time at backpost. Shot goes over the bar. #ATLUTD

SJ already has 1.01 xg. #ATLUTD has 0.12

Berrocal was left to try to defend 3 SJ players in the box. Just no discipline or communication on defense by #ATLUTD

San Jose scores. Judd #ATLUTD trails 1-0. Giveaway by Hoyos. Cross to an unmarked man. Awful decisions. Awful defending.

If Lobjanidze could just calm down when he gets the ball. .... #ATLUTD

ELL with a shot that's blocked. Nice run by Jacob. Found by Almiron. #ATLUTD

I understand why Martino selected the same 11 for #ATLUTD. He said he thought it created enough chances against Cincy. Consistency breeds chemistry breeds confidence. But it is odd that Miranchuk is on the bench after Tata spent a lot of time preseason praising him.

#ATLUTD loses to Cincinnati 2-0 to open its 10th season in #MLS. I would ask that you don't read too much into the good or the bad from today. Way too early.

Ronald Hernandez leads #ATLUTD in key passes (2).

Hagglund outjumps Mihaj at the front post. #ATLUTD behind 2-0

Denkey scores. #ATLUTD trails 1-0 in the 80th minute. ATLUTD lines became disorganized. Cincy counters with a 2-on-1.

#ATLUTD looks tired.

Miranchuk and Muyumba on for Sanchez and Lobjanidze. #ATLUTD

Almiron shot saved after a a perfect example of season-opening soccer. Really crazy pattern #ATLUTD

Denkey off the post. #ATLUTD fortunate match is still 0-0

First 45 is done. #ATLUTD started great but has since not done much in attack. 0.04 XG Cincinnati produced 0.36 XG #ATLUTD

#ATLUTD got off to a good start offensively but it has since disappeared. Cincinnati dominating possession and doing so without Evander. #MLS

Hoyos with a great save to stop what would have been a certain goal. And then the flag goes up. #ATLUTD #MLS

Evander leaves for Cincinnati. #ATLUTD
