Not good news for the Loons but hopefully Sang Bin's injury is not as serious as the stretcher makes it appear.

This tweet is for about seven total people, but looks like the Atlanta Silverbacks attendance counter has found new employment.

After a month of settling in, with results slipping, that was the first real game where Eric Ramsey made a real choice, took a real risk, made a stamp on the team—and it completely paid off.

Super good sign for the new coach.

A update: Carlos Harvey scored a second-half hat-trick, and the Loons' MLS NEXT Pro team got its first win of the year, beating Portland on the road 4-3.

Shaping up for a pair of road wins this afternoon, for MNUFC as a club.

Arriaga with a great diving stop to potentially score a goal.

The Honduran might have as future as a starting centerback because he's been frankly excellent today.

When have the ball, the game is very wide. Loons playing switches from right to left.

When Charlotte have the ball, the game is narrow, only half width, and they're playing exclusively vertical. Making it simple for makeshift centerbacks Arriaga and Padelford.

Tani hits the post right after the goal, the hosts are in shambles.

What little atmosphere there was in the building has basically vanished, and we're not yet an hour in.
