Atlanta United was well-represented in the MLS team of the week announced on Monday.

Ezequiel Barco was named to the first team, centerback George Campbell was named to the bench, and Gonzalo Pineda was named the team’s manager after its 3-0 win against Orlando last week.

Barco scored a goal, and his free kick was turned into an own goal for two of the team’s goals. Campbell’s goal, his first as a pro, proved to be the winner. He was also part of a defense that posted its sixth shutout.

Pineda won his first game in his second attempt with the club.

Atlanta United will host Cincinnati on Wednesday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
