Minnesota United FC hosted another top-of-the-table clash on Saturday night, welcoming second place Austin FC back to Allianz Field. Despite ceding the majority of possession to their visitors, MNUFC saw out a sloppy period of injury time and clinched three points at home with a 2-1 finish.
While only one goal came from the run of play, a season-high crowd of 19,829 were treated to a display of two attacking sides with all their biggest components in form. At times it was even another look at the MLS All-Stars with Minnesota’s Emanuel Reynoso and Austin’s Sebastian Driussi reuniting, this time as opposing 10s.
