Alright, alright, alright — Tacoma Defiance also take on Austin this Sunday. Defiance are at Bold Stadium inside the Circuit of the Americas to take on Austin Bold. Bold are one of four teams Tacoma take on that are outside of the Pacific Division of the USL Championship.
Starting their year 2-0-1, +3 Wade Webber’s team has been more pragmatic than year’s past, while also showing tactical flexibility to shift from his typical 4-3-3 to a 3-5-2 with both fullbacks and wingbacks in their last victory. Today’s match is their longest road trip of the year, a journey down to South Texas to visit some old friends — Ugo Okoli (3 starts, 1 goal), Collin Fernandez (2 starts, 1 sub appearance), Nick Hinds (1 start, 2 sub appearances, 1 goal).
