Austin FC News Release
Austin, TEXAS - Austin FC defeated St. Louis City SC 2-0 on Sunday evening at Q2 Stadium thanks to goals from Christian Ramirez and Myrto Uzuni. The match attendance of 20,738 marked the Club's 94th consecutive MLS home sellout, extending the league's longest active streak.
Austin put together a strong first half but could not find the net. Uzuni's close-range header forced a sprawling save from St. Louis goalkeeper Roman Bürki in the 21st minute and Ilie Sánchez's powerful shot was blocked over the bar just before the break.
The Verde & Black were rewarded for all their positive play with a goal from Ramirez in the 69th minute. The striker got on the end of a cross from Dani Pereira and headed the ball past Bürki. Ramirez then set up Uzuni 12 minutes later for the Albanian international's team-high fourth goal of the season, sealing ATXFC's second consecutive win. Brandon Vazquez and Owen Wolff both returned from injury to make their season debuts in the victory.
