On Monday, the City of Atlanta held its first sports championship victory parade since 1995 when the Braves won the World Series.
Atlanta United won the Superbowl of Major League Soccer Saturday, defeating the Portland Timbers 2 – 0 in the MLS Cup.
In just two seasons, the team has broken every fan attendance record in the league, setting a new one over the weekend with 73,000 people at Mercedes Benz Stadium. Atlanta’s unique fan zeal was on display at the parade.
Love soccer! It is the ultimate teamwork ?? Academics should pay attention to strategies of winning teams and how it relates to business strategy?
