is palpable and you can understand why and a warm welcome on what is an ideal night for football you've got to say I'm Derek Ray in the commentary position and I'm joined for expert analysis by my partner Stuart Robson I'm very much looking forward to bringing you live action from MLS it's Charlotte FC and they take on Atlanta United thanks Derek well often we talk about the tactics the individual players players that are missing but so often it's the mentality of the players that is key to in any football game which of these teams has the right attitude today is the big question and this is how the hosts will begin the game today well it's a 451 but with three of the Midfield players giving close support to the center forward and the other two sitting deeper also watch out for the fullbacks getting forward at every opportunity they do like to get crosses into the box well here's the Atlanta United starting 11 well no surpris really they're matching up here but there are many different ways they can approach this game and I just think they'll be cautious today certainly early on Crossing [Applause] possibilities Westwood just can't get it past [Applause] him intense [Applause] pressure and does well to keep it in [Applause] play it's a neat move that is a very fine challenge in difficult circumstances Westwood moving the ball nicely but can they Forge ahead just the challenge that was [Applause] required Jamal tiari now can he get on the end of this one oh [Applause] surely very quick thinking there Nathan [Applause] burn Westwood good looking move to put them ahead my goodness that save fully stretched he was one for his own highlights reel he's driven in the corner and the danger is AED Stan R de Gregerson and there it is the halim [Applause] whistle so back underway here into the second [Applause] half well no point in stopping play advantage with them and he read it well can they create something from [Applause] here uronen into the advanced position and options in the center keeping the ball moving Carol sherki he fancies it stopped a Sure Fire goal substitution time is is here well they haven't created too much lately but the fans know this is a chance to take the lead here who can he pick out clearance left a bit to be desired [Applause] pel who can he pick out the delivery towards the back post oh he really bruised the crossbar there is the goal to open the scoring who can say they don't deserve to be in [Applause] front well as the replay shows us it's a decent first effort but he's so quick to get onto the rebound that's a good finish [Applause] so the ball rolling again with the score line standing at 1- n attacks McCarthy s useful looking position you've got to say now a corner here and that might boost the [Applause] hopes and with play stop they will make the change now can he deliver it with accuracy and dealing with the danger lenon here's maccari Williams [Applause] s Alexa Muk he's in behind oh a goal that levels it in the closing phase of this game well here it is again the through ball is absolutely inch perfect and when he gets onto it he decides to go for power it's a really emphatic finish which gives the keeper no chance so a level contest 1-1 5 minutes from remaining and level pegging here beel sherki good tackle Brooks lenon and here's miranchuk lenon two minutes of stoppage time coming up Derek Williams and there's the referee's whistle still all square [Applause]
