Nico, last night, on Joseph Rosales being used at right wing: “I think people think that he's a left back, but he never play(ed) as a left back in Minnesota. He play(ed) as a wing back with five. That is different. And he came in in into the league as a central midfielder.” #AustinFC

From Austin FC Communications on the other platform: “Facundo Torres registered an assist 7 minutes into his Austin FC debut on Saturday, tying McKinze Gaines' Club record for the fastest goal contribution by a new player. Torres created 3 total chances and also completed 2 successful dribbles.”

Not really focusing on @kickbase-usa.bsky.social for #MLSFantasy, but there are only 7 players in the Austin FC challenge group (pick the 6 Austin FC players you think will perform best). You can sign up here. kickbase.app.link/lHw62Q94X0b

Dayne St. Clair was MLS goalkeeper of the year in 2025. I'll be interested to see if he makes it through 2026 as Inter Miami's starting goalkeeper.

Still wondering about the absences of Sabovic and Biro. Unofficial red card suspensions?

After one half, Facundo Torres already looks like the 2nd best DP Austin FC has ever had.

Facundo Torres’ first goal contribution of the season.

- No Šabović or Biro on the team sheet (possibly due to preseason reds?). - Žan Kolmanič starts at left back. - Looks like Joseph Rosales continues as right wing. - Definitely a possibility to see Ervin Torres subbing in.

Prior to the start of the 2026 regular season on Saturday, MLS Communications would like to highlight several of the independent soccer outlets and writers that are providing valuable coverage locally and nationally:

DOG AT THE OLYMPICS FULL COMPETITION HIGHLIGHTS

Updates: #MNUFC star James Rodriguez has not yet received his work visa as of Tuesday, meaning the Colombian is doubtful to make his #Loons debut vs. Austin FC on Saturday. Tomas Chancalay has received his U.S. Green Card and returned to training. Jefferson Diaz still away working on his green card.

Here’s mine.

🚨AUSTIN FC NEWS🚨 Sporting Director Rodolfo Borrell will address the media on Tuesday, February 17 at 10:00 a.m. CT at St. David’s Performance Center as Austin FC hosts its season kickoff media availability ahead of the 2026 Home Opener. 🌳 We’ll have full coverage. 🎥 #austinfc #verde | WAATV

Community Results!

I saw 3 Austin FC preseason games, and they never scored a goal. They scored 3 in the games we weren’t able to watch.

Post-match thoughts. First game at Q2 next week.

Austin FC has their final preseason friendly vs Sporting Kansas City at Coachella at Noon today. It will be streamed on austinfc.com. SKC has a thin roster, but they did manage to defeat NYCFC with a Dejan Joveljic brace. They’ll also be facing former Austin FC GK Stefan Cleveland.

I like the cohesive look.

What happened with #MLSFantasy. 1. It’s announced that MLS will not continue to support the older fantasy game. 2. It has now selected Kickbase, a fantasy app used for other leagues like Bundesliga, as its official vendor. Kickbase originally had only a 6-player lineup.

Email your STH ticket rep and any press. The property cost drove out the breweries, now they're not even selling the beers.
