Quiet against Charlotte
Alonso had one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Charlotte FC.
Analysis: Alonso had a rough night as Atlanta fell to Charlotte, with the defender recording one tackle won and three clearances while allowing two goals. He would complete 74 passes, his fourth contest this season with 70 or more completed passes. He remains on the lookout for a clean sheet, with the defender yet to notch one since joining the club.
Available after obtaining visa
Alonso has obtained his visa and is available for selection ahead of Wednesday's match against Charlotte FC, according to Atlanta United sporting director Chris Henderson, per Joe Freihofer.
Analysis: Alonso just joined Atlanta a few days ago following his time at the World Cup with Paraguay, and his newly obtained visa clears the way for a potential debut sooner than initially expected. The center back figures to compete with Elias Baez for time at left back once he is fully integrated into the squad, and his involvement against Charlotte will be worth watching given how quickly he has become available.
