As a public service to you (and because some of these questions came up for me during the season), I'm previewing a new page I plan to update throughout the 2026 season.
Just one game in, and it's not terribly captivating, I'll admit, but I expect it (as it with stats) to be more relevant and applicable throughout the season. In the current landscape of stats providers being more proprietary and less democratic with what they let out, I'm doing what I can (and working with people doing what they can) to keep you informed.
(If there's anything you're not seeing that you're interested in, let me know, and if it's doable, I'm happy to roll it in.)
Verde All Day is a reader-supported online publication covering Austin FC. Additional support is provided by Austin Telco Federal Credit Union. For more coverage, check out Emergency Podcast! (an Austin FC Podcast) wherever you get your podcasts.
Maybe you're dismissive of the nerdery inherent in the goals added metric that American Soccer Analysis uses to measure player impact. But what if it tells you Austin FC's one of the best teams in the league?
Christian Ramírez made the difference for Austin FC on Sunday. It's amazing that, on Thursday evening, he was on a plane en route to meeting his new team.
It took less than 15 minutes on the field for Christian Ramírez to score his first goal in Verde. That goal proved the difference in a match in which the hosts dominated but struggled to break through.
