In this episode of Southern Fried Soccer, host Doug Roberson and guest Jason Longshore discuss Atlanta United’s 1-0 loss to New York Red Bulls in MLS action on Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

We discuss the goal that in their opinion shouldn’t have been allowed to stand, Marcelino Moreno’s debut, the team’s need for a striker and Roberson shares his theory -- only a theory -- about Ezequiel Barco.
