Matt Edwards, making his second MLS start, had Premier League veteran Wilfried Zaha’s number throughout the first half in Atlanta United’s match against Charlotte on Saturday. Zaha became so frustrated that he pushed Edwards in the back after he successfully prevented Zaha from reaching a ball as it crossed the end line.

Wilfried Zaha scored on his debut for Charlotte FC and Israeli Tai Baribo scored a hat-trick for the Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer on Saturday.

Last week, it was about Emmanuel Latte Lath, Kévin Denkey, and, of course, the Inter Miami CF superstars Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, but who are three players to keep an eye on as Matchday 2 approaches?

Win second balls and go direct downhill was the formula for the Red Bulls against a Nashville side “still buffering” to their 2.0 promise. It took less than seven minutes to break through, with 20-year-old Mohammed Sofo scoring a rebound for his first MLS goal in his first start.
