Saturday's Clinching Scenario
If results continue to trend in the right direction for SAFC, a playoff spot should be clinched in the coming matches. However, there is one scenario where SAFC could clinch a playoff spot at the conclusion of its match this Saturday vs. Tulsa. Should SAFC defeat FC Tulsa on Saturday night, the club could clinch a playoff berth if their win is coupled with an Austin Bold loss at Real Monarchs and an RGV FC loss or draw in Colorado Springs. If those three results come to fruition, SAFC would sit at 50 points while Real Monarchs SLC, RGV FC and Austin Bold FC could not reach 50 points in their remaining games, clinching at least a top four finish and a playoff berth for the Alamo City club.
SAFC Clinches Playoff Berth With:
-SAFC win vs. FC Tulsa on 10/16
- and -
-Austin Bold loss at Real Monarchs on 10/16
-RGV FC loss or draw at Colorado Springs on 10/16
Forward Progress
SAFC forward Nathan was named the SWBC Man of the Match after scoring two goals and adding five shots and three key passes last Sunday vs. Memphis. The goals marked his first goals since 9/4 vs. PIT and his fourth brace on the season. His four braces are not only the most in SAFC history, but also the most in a single season. Nathan's 10 goals lead the team as Sunday saw him become just the third player all-time in SAFC history to notch 10 goals in a season. Two goals in the last four matches would see him set a new SAFC single-season record.
