Amaya's goal gives Cincinnati win over Atlanta. MORE:
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Frankie Amaya scored his first career Major League Soccer goal in the 76th minute to give Cincinnati a 1-0 victory over Atlanta United on Thursday in the MLS is Back tournament.
The young midfielder's left-footed shot from atop the penalty area sailed over the outstretched arm of Atlanta goalkeeper Brad Guzan. Amaya, the first pick in the 2019 MLS draft, has played for the U.S. Under-20 team. Both teams entered the game with losses in the MLS is Back tournament. United fell 1-0 to the Red Bulls, while Cincinnati was routed 4-0 by Columbus.
Cincinnati lost its two regular-season games. The team had faced upheaval when coach Ron Jans resigned in February after a league investigation found he’d used a racial slur in the locker room. Jaap Stam was hired as head coach in May.
