Atlanta United’s playoff hopes appear to have faded after Saturday’s meeting with Lionel Messi and Inter Miami.
Atlanta entered the match needing a win to strengthen its chances of reaching the postseason. The team had drawn 2-2 with Montreal earlier in the week, leaving its position in the playoff race uncertain.
Atlanta’s next scheduled game is away to the Chicago Fire on Oct. 24. The available match details do not establish Saturday’s score or Messi’s specific contribution.
