WHATEVER, BRAAAD: The last time out against Austin, MNUFC rolled in a 4-2-3-1 that was missing Bakaye Dibassy from the backline and featured a four-man front of Hassani Dotson, Emanuel Reynoso and Ethan Finlay through the midfield and Ramón Ábila up top. While the teams ended up even on total shots at 13, Austin put two more on frame than the Loons and ended with 1.9 xG to Minnesota’s 0.9, making the 1-0 final score a fair summary of the game. Overall on the season, though, Austin — like many expansion teams before them — have struggled with converting chances; their six goals on the year lags 3.
