The man of the match for Atlanta United following Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Portland:

Alec Kann

Goalkeeper

Why: He had four saves, including a tough one to keep Fenando Adi from scoring late on a low, curling effort that was headed into the corner. He started the build-it-from-the-back approach numerous times throughout the game.

Quote: “This is a tough place to go. We would have loved three points. We arguably had the better of the game. We controlled the game. It’s disappointing to get a point when we should win. At the end of the day a point in this stadium is a good result.”
