    ATLANTA----A second half goal by former Spanish international Marcos Senna gave the New York Cosmos a 1-0 win and the NASL Soccer Bowl Championship in their first year in the league.

    The re-booted Cosmos, who won the league’s fall title captured the championship by beating the Spring champion Atlanta Silverbacks at Silverbacks Park in front of 7,211 mostly Silverbacks fans.

    After dominating the attack in the first half, the Cosmos broke through in to 50th minute. Ayoze took a free kick from 25 yards out that was cleared by an Atlanta defender. The ball fell to Senna who looped an 18 yard shot from the right side into the opposite upper 90.

    The championship is the sixth in the history of the fabled New York club, which dominated the former version of the North American Soccer League in the 1970s and 80s.
