WATCH THE CLIP

<p>Wiley said: "It came off nice. Not used to scoring those. There was a similar play in the first half where it kind of came out to me. Thiago [Almada] played it into space and I took a touch and then took it, played it out of bounds to Tyler [Wolff]. But this time, I saw the chance to take my shot, take the opportunity to hit it, and it went in the back of the net, which was a nice feeling."</p>

WHAT WILEY SAID ABOUT HIS GOAL

<p>The 63rd minute strike from 19-year-old Wiley, who debuted for the senior national team last April, put <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/atlanta-united/943ue6l8ylnidoygbi9p8op2h" target="_self">Atlanta</a> 2-0 up in the game against the undefeated Philadelphia side. But it still wasn't enough to inflict a first <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/major-league-soccer/287tckirbfj9nb8ar2k9r60vn" target="_self">MLS</a> loss of 2024 on the Union, who fought back with goals from Mikael Uhre and Kai Wagner in the 73rd and 77th minutes respectively to tie the game.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Wiley's immediate focus will be on Atlanta, who sit sixth in the Eastern Conference after the latest results, only four points behind and with two games in hand on early division leaders Inter Miami. As far as the national team is concerned, he was involved with the Under-23 side during the most recent internationals but will be eyeing a call-up for June fixtures against Colombia and Brazil, leading into the Copa America, with good club form.</p>
