00:00- Diego Fagundez, still in a #verde scarf, tells ATXFC fans “I wish it wasn’t ending.” Says he was surprised to hear he was traded today.
00:00 - Lionel Messi bailing on tonight's #MLSAllStar Game is more than just a soft, annoying decision. It's a shortsighted, reputation-threatening, full-on diva move that shoves a middle finger into the face of MLS and its fans. And for what? Full thoughts:
- NEWS: The #USMNT🇺🇸 will return to Austin's Q2 Stadium on Friday, October 10th, for a crucial friendly against Ecuador🇪🇨 in the build-up to the 2026 World Cup. Huge match, and I'm told tickets will start as low as $35.
- Diego Fagundez was THE face of soccer in Central Texas. Trading him is a desperate, over-reactionary, and frankly tone-deaf move that betrays the #AustinFC fanbase and leaves the club without a clear direction. Column:
- Horrific? There’s barely any contact. Puig is fine. Let’s all cool off shall we?Austin FC's Guilherme Biro shouldn't see the field for a long, long time after this horrific tackle on Riqui Puig. Gross. Absolutely gross.
00:00 - A harsh dose of reality from new #AustinFC sporting director Rodolfo Borrell on the state of the club: “In my opinion, the club overachieved last year.”
00:00 - Lionel Messi no-showing tonight's #MLSAllStarGame is such a middle finger to the league and its fans. It's beyond soft. Messi is not injured. And if he's not "too big" to be an official tourism ambassador for Saudi Arabia and do silly commercials, he's not too big for this match
- I'd be upset too if my choices had consequences🚨⚠️ Inter Miami managing owner Jorge Mas on Leo Messi’s suspension: “Messi is extremely upset. I’m hopeful it doesn’t have an impact long-term”. “Will it have an impact on (Messi’s) perception on the league and its rules? No doubt”.
- #AustinFC sporting director Rodolfo Borrell sheds extraordinary insight into how things came to an end with DP winger Emiliano Rigoni. He attempted to work with Rigoni’s agent to find a solution to the appearance clause in Rigoni’s contract, but no agreement was made.
