Bender might end up being the face of this league at some point.

1 goal and 2 assists in 4 games thus far.

Anton Walkes making his debut, coming in for Swiderski.

They’re starting to gel. First goal really dialed the whole team up

Great win for the boys, happy for them

Team has played so much better with Bender on the field

[Carl Spackler]

What a win! Epic performances from Swiderski, Bender and Kahlina once again. Three points, finally!

We have a good team, first 3 games were lost on dumb mistakes that can be easily fixed by coaching and just as they get more experience as a team, tonight we saw the potential.  So excited about this team.

I might have to get me a black Bender jersey.

The MLS Draft has one of the worst success rates out of all the major sports because most elite players have already joined academy teams and are tied to a team (whether domestic or foreign).

Basically the MLS Draft is a crap shoot.

For example, Austin FC selected Danny Pereira first overall in 2021. I actually had the privilege of coaching against Pereira a few years ago during his HS career. He is a very good player and had a solid career at Virginia Tech. However, his skill didn’t translate to immediate success in the MLS as he recorded one single assist in 25 games last year.

Our boy Bender has a goal and two assists through his first four games. He’s a gamer.

My observations watching this game in person

Świderski is legit, his first touch and turns will make him lethal in attack
Bender is a future star and needs to be starting every match

Need to get another center midfielder. Bronico and Ruiz just won’t be good enough to help us take it to the next level

Surprisingly, Fuchs has struggled a bit defensively but still is a great leader and gets involved in the game.

Quick question about ticket seating. I bought 2 tickets in the supporter section earlier this week and an additional one today.  The section for the third ticket shows different than the first 2.  

 

Since the supporters section is “arrive first, get to choose seating first” there should be no issue with my tickets right, in terms of being able to have all 3 people together?

You might want to post this on the clubs Reddit page too. Not sure how many people have gone to a game that post on here.

I believe it's first-come, first-serve, though @DeSim. So if you get there together there should be no problem.
