l-r: Austin FC players Jáder Obrian, Emiliano Rigoni, and Sebastián Driussi celebrate Obrian’s goal in a 2-0 win against the LA GalaxyAustin FC delivered its fans a win straight out of the 2022 scrapbook with a 2-0 home triumph over theon Saturday.

Hopefully he can someday forgive those of us who cover the team for... covering the team? But that’s neither here nor there. When you’re winning, you can talk smack to whomever you please. Winning is skill, one that’s eluded Austin FC for seasons at a time in the past. Not this year. El Tree has regained a grittiness to fight back when the opponent strikes first, as it did in comeback wins over FC Dallas and the San Jose Earthquakes. It has flexed a discipline to see out tight leads as it did against the Houston Dynamo and the Galaxy.
