Two Western Conference sides hoping to reach the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs locked horns tonight, with Austin FC fighting to a 2-1 win against the Seattle Sounders at Q2 Stadium.
A dull first half briefly sprang to life in the 37th minute when Austin shot-stopper Brad Stuver brilliantly denied Cristian Roldan’s close-range header at the near post.
Austin would repay Stuver by taking the lead six minutes later against the run of play, when Diego Rubio stripped Jackson Ragen of possession just outside of the center circle before racing into the box to dispatch a low effort past Andrew Thomas.
Seattle would pull level 35 seconds after the break, however, when leading scorer Danny Musovski was put into space before cutting back to substitute Georgi Minoungou, who scored with his first touch to bag his first MLS goal.
Stuver would come up big on two more occasions in the aftermath of the Sounders’ equalizer before Austin went on to find a second goal, this time in the sixth minute of added time through Myrto Uzuni to guarantee all three points while pulling within a point of Seattle in the table.
Still To Come
