Minnesota United
π Yes, there was a defeat to Houston Dynamo two rounds ago. Everyone has off days. The club learned the right lessons and then secured two consecutive wins. They scored three goals in each match, showcasing Minnesota's incredible attacking strength, which is their main advantage. St. Louis had one decent game where they scored twice, but it didn't really matter. Minnesota United are maintaining their form and don't seem to be slowing down.
β½οΈ In the cup match, Anthony Markanich scored twice; it's surprising how often the defender finds the net this season. Kelvin Yeboah also woke up, getting on the scoresheet after a long goal drought.
π There are no new injuries, with only Hassani Dotson continuing his recovery.
Austin
π Austin found the back of the net three times in their cup match, but to be fair, their opponents played poorly. In their latest MLS clash against Vancouver, the defense deserves credit for shutting down the Canadians. However, the offense struggled to create chances, managing only four shots on target, despite an xG of 1.14. Perhaps the team is lacking in quality depth? Either way, the battle in the championship continues.
β½οΈ Brandon Vazquez leads the team with four goals and stands out as their top scorer. There's no one else worth highlighting.
π DaniΓ«l Pereira is still recovering from injury. The club is short on midfielders, so they are eagerly awaiting his return to the lineup.
