Nashville SC and Atlanta United caught the eyes of many in February, as they battled in front of 59,069 fans at Nissan Stadium. Off the field, the coronavirus pandemic has altered the pathways of both clubs. On it, a similar issue reigns problematic. 

Not to mention, Pity Martinez scored both goals in its 2-0 win over Nashville Aug. 22. First reported by this episode's guest, Felipe Cardenas of The Athletic, Martinez has since departed MLS for Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr, leaving Atlanta with goal boots to fill.

Cardenas debuts this episode to talk about Atlanta's recent player transactions, goal production and the match against Nashville Saturday at Nissan Stadium (7:30 p.m; MyTV 30, 102.5 The Game).
