2025 Season

Austin FC Secures Sixth Place with Win Over LAFC

report

Owen Wolff scored in the 83rd minute to help Austin FC to a 1-0 win over LAFC on Sunday night at Q2 Stadium, snapping LAFC’s six-match winning streak. With the victory, Austin FC is now guaranteed to finish in sixth place in the Western Conference ahead of its final regular season match, ensuring the team will bypass the Wild Card round of the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs.

The first half passed without many chances for either side. ATXFC came out with more intent in the second, with Jon Gallagher testing LAFC goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in the 59th minute.

Austin FC created the winner from a corner kick. LAFC’s defense failed to clear a good ball in from Žan Kolmanič, and Wolff reacted quickest to head it in from close range. It was Wolff’s team-high 17th goal contribution of the season in all competitions.

The shutout was Austin’s ninth of 2025, setting a new single-season Club best.
