Didn’t get a preview article together, but predicting an LAFC 2-0 win tonight with Bukari questionable for Austin.

A few pics from Lake Tahoe including “Monkey Rock” which reminded me how humbling hiking in the mountains can be.

Here is tonight's What You Need To Know from @waatvofficial.bsky.social about Austin FC vs. San Diego FC

open.substack.com/pub/waatv/p/...
Mid-co Estévez Wednesday night marked Nico Estévez’s 100th match in charge of an MLS Side. In those 100 matches his teams are an almost perfectly middling 33-34-33 and his sides have a +1 GD with 118 goals for and 117 goals against (shoutout to LV Slack for the info). After the (too late) firing of Josh Wolff at the end of the season we were told by Rodolfo Borrell that there are “names you wouldn’t believe” interested in the job and to his credit, the coach fired mid-season by one of the few clubs who were worse than Austin last season was not a name I would believe he would be interested in hiring. In his time here we’ve seen Austin play uninspiring soccer with uninspiring results, now sitting in 10th place in the Western Conference with a -7GD and the fewest goals scored in the league. The club broke it’s transfer record multiple times on a front line and added in better players all over the pitch, but at this time it’s tough to think that the best way to get this team back to the playoffs is with Nico in charge.
