Before that match, a USL Championship win away at Orange County.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Antonio as they are travelling to their away game against New Mexico United in the USL Championship. That match is three days after this one.
Austin form and stats
Things could have gone better for Austin in their Major League Soccer away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
Austin play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting DC United. An amazing comeback from Austin last time out, trailing 0-2 before rallying an inspired fight which eventually led to Gabrielsen scoring the winning goal in the 90th minute.
