About Last Night: How Saturday's results affected Austin FC's (diminishing) playoff hopes

It wasn't the worst set of outcomes for Austin FC on Saturday night, but it certainly wasn't the best — especially because of the weirdness in Columbus.

If you didn’t watch MLS soccer last night — with Austin off and a limited number of teams on during an international break — you missed one really off-the-rails match and some humdrum 0-0 affairs.

However, three matches proved consequential to Verde’s playoff chances, as teams ahead of Austin or now ahead of Austin got at least a point from their Weird Week Contests.

Let’s talk about the matches first.
