Rocco Rios Novo (ATL) - #PITvATL, 8/22/21: The Argentine youth international made his second penalty save this season with a diving stop to keep out Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC’s Russell Cicerone from the spot early at Highmark Stadium.

Danny Vitiello (PIT) - #PITvATL, 8/22/21: Caught off his line at a corner kick, Danny Vitiello had to scramble but successfully cleared the ball off the goal line before it crossed fully as Atlanta’s Darwin Matheus tried to score directly from a corner kick.
