Austin FC News Release


Austin, TEXAS -Maxi Urruti scored in the 88th minute to lift Austin FC to a 1-0 victory over CF Montréal on Saturday night, in front of a sold-out crowd at Q2 Stadium.

Austin had more possession and more chances in the first half. Emiliano Rigoni came close to scoring on two occasions, and a Gyasi Zardes strike was called offside. Brad Stuver made a pair of strong saves to keep Montréal off the board.

The Verde & Black continued to control the flow of the match in the second half. Urruti hit the post, and Ethan Finlay forced a saved from Montréal goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois. Austin eventually found a reward for all its initiative, with Urruti popping up to poke home a low cross from Jon Gallagher with two minutes left in normal time.

The shutout win earns the Club its first three points of the season, with its first-ever Concacaf Champions League match coming up on Tuesday.
