ATLANTA — There’s a professional team in Atlanta that can’t stop winning, on the scoreboard and in the way they’re changing the game. Atlanta Unified is leading the city in goals, inclusion, and heart.

Every match day starts with a celebration, as Atlanta United and Atlanta Unified walk into Mercedes-Benz Stadium side by side, sign the golden spike, and chant their way into the arena.

For the Unified players, it’s not just about the walkout; it’s about the chance to live their dream on one of the biggest stages in soccer.

“I’ve been playing since I was 5, I really love the sport,” said Xavier Hairston, known as “X-Man” to teammates and fans. He’s now the leading scorer for Atlanta Unified. “Being on the field, it’s like a dream come true.”
