'We're trying everything to win games here': Reflections on a second straight Copa Tejas home draw
One point is better than none, but Austin FC's seventh home draw of the 2025 season means that in league matches in Q2 Stadium, they've now drawn more than won and lost combined.

It's just one match ... but here's one worrying metric from the 2024 Austin FC season to revisit
