After a difficult series in the league, Atlanta United was able to count on the return to form of Luiz Araujo to move up the Eastern Conference standings.
Author of two goals and an assist in his club’s last five games, the Brazilian winger reiterated this night by being involved in the two goals of Atlanta’s victory against Inter Miami (2-0). After opening the scoring with a fine shot at the entrance to the area, the 26-year-old was the decisive passer on the second, allowing him to be voted man of the match. A performance that allows Atlanta to come back in front of their evening opponent and get closer to the first seven places, synonymous with qualification for the MLS playoffs. Since arriving in the United States in August 2021, Luiz Araujo has played 27 games for 9 goals and 5 assists.
