ATLANTA (AP) — Mikael Uhre and defender Kai Wagner scored the final two goals of the second half and the Philadelphia Union pulled out a 2-2 draw with Atlanta United on Sunday to remain the lone unbeaten team.

Neither team scored until Daniel Ríos netted the first goal of his career to give Atlanta United (3-2-2) the lead in the 55th minute. Ríos, a 29-year-old rookie forward making his first start and second appearance, used Thiago Almada’s first assist of the season to score.

Caleb Wiley, a 19-year-old defender in his third season with Atlanta United, stretched the lead to 2-0 in the 62nd minute when he took a pass from Edwin Mosquera and drilled a left-footed shot from outside the box to the bottom left corner of the net. It was Wiley’s first goal this season and the sixth of his career.

Philadelphia (4-0-3) bounced back to even the score over a four-minute span.
