Tristan Muyumba scores for 3rd straight game to help Atlanta United beat Minnesota United 2-1

Tristan Muyumba scored his third consecutive goal as Atlanta United defeated Minnesota United 2-1 on Wednesday night. This victory marked Atlanta's return to form after a seven-match losing streak, while Minnesota is currently winless in nine consecutive games. Tomás Jacob opened the scoring for Atlanta in the 37th minute, capitalizing on a missed clearance to score his second MLS goal of his career.

Muyumba then sealed the win in the 78th minute with a goal during a counterattack, becoming the ninth player in Atlanta's history to score in three straight games. Minnesota's Anthony Markanich equalized the score in the 58th minute, but Morris Duggan's redirected cross off the crossbar provided the winning header for Atlanta. The teams will next face each other again, with Atlanta hosting Sporting Kansas City on Sunday and Minnesota traveling to play the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday.
