Squad16 Jun 2031

A knee injury of the worst kind for David Sargent

30 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Austin FC lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match14 Jun 2031

Anderson Julio settles it late for Austin FC

The 89th minute, half the ground already edging towards the exits, and Anderson Julio decided nobody was going anywhere. San Jose Earthquakes had no time left to answer.

Will Richmond: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Austin FC have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market16 Jun 2031

Ervin Torres is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Austin FC is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad16 Jun 2031

Mikkel Desler in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Austin FC this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad16 Jun 2031

Žan Kolmanič falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match14 Jun 2031

The run at home goes on for Austin FC

9 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Match14 Jun 2031

Austin FC find a way past San Jose Earthquakes

San Jose Earthquakes made Austin FC work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings16 Jun 2031

The afternoon belonged to Facundo Torres

A mark of 7.83, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

A knee injury of the worst kind for David Sargent

37 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Austin FC lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match4 Jun 2031

Austin FC bow out of the cup

Orlando City go through and Austin FC go home, 0‑1 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Squad9 Jun 2031

Tempers go at Austin FC

Mikkel Desler was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad9 Jun 2031

Words at Austin FC training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Žan Kolmanič is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings9 Jun 2031

Nobody could get near Facundo Torres

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad9 Jun 2031

Austin FC keep their word to Jason Shokalook

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Age has not caught Myrto Uzuni yet — 8.38

At 36 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.38 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match31 May 2031

Austin FC make home a hard place to visit

8 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.
