Two teams had a very good Week 30 of the 2018 MLS regular season, and that was apparent in the Team of the Week presented by Audi.


Both Atlanta United and Philadelphia Union won two games during the week, and both teams have two players each in the Team of the Week XI, with Atlanta placing two more players in the 18, and the Union's head coach getting a nod as well.
