victory over Atlanta
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) --- Shak Mohammed scored in the 79th minute, Brian
Schwake made five saves for his seventh clean sheet of the season, and
Nashville beat Atlanta United 1-0 on Friday night for its fourth straight
victory.
Nashville (11-1-3) moved five points ahead of second-place Inter Miami in the
Eastern Conference standings and four points in front of Vancouver in the
Supporters' Shield race. Nashville is unbeaten in nine-straight games.
Atlanta (3-10-2) is on a four-game winless streak.
Mohammed headed in Alex Muyl's cross for his second goal with Nashville ---
both coming against Atlanta. Muyl entered as a substitute in the 74th.
Schwake denied Atlanta forward Luke Brennan from just outside the six-yard box
in the 59th.
Miguel Almirn, coming off a World Cup campaign with Paraguay, returned to
Atlanta's starting lineup for the first time since April 11.
