Impact The former Red Bulls player set up Diego Fagundez's goal with a lovely low cross from the right flank, and he was having an impressive performance before departing the game with an undisclosed injury late in the game. Considering Stroud has started Austin's last two matches, it's worth monitoring his status for next week's game at Sporting Kansas City.

Scores winning goal Fagundez bagged the winning goal Saturday against Minnesota United. He took two shots (one on target) and also sent one cross.
Impact Hadn't it been for the goal, Fagundez's performance would've probably gone unnoticed. However, the former New England playmaker bagged his second goal of the campaign in the 17th minute when he took advantage of a low cross to find the back of the net. Fagundez now has both of Austin's goals in 2021.

Makes six clearances Besler made six clearances while adding two interceptions, two blocked shots and one tackle in Saturday's win over Minnesota United.
Impact The veteran defender returned to the starting lineup after missing last week's game against Colorado, and he looked solid at the back. The fact that he's played the full 90 in both starts suggests he'll remain in the lineup as long as he stays healthy, which is a big "if" with an aging player such as Besler.

Keeps clean sheet Saturday Stuver made two saves and recorded one clearance while keeping a clean sheet in Saturday's win over Minnesota United.
Impact Stuver had allowed three goals in his first two matches while racking up 12 saves, so this was certainly a step in the right direction for the 30-year-old goalkeeper. He's now allowed more than one goal just once all season long.

Out after knee surgery Segura underwent successful osteochondral allograft transplantation surgery in his left knee and will be out an unknown amount of time.
Impact Segura was expected to help Austin in their expansion season, but a knee injury will prevent that from happening for at least a month or two. It's unknown when he'll be an option again, but given that he's having surgery, he'll be out a month, at a minimum.

Suffers torn ACL Sweat suffered a torn ACL in Saturday's match and will likely miss the rest of the season.
Impact Sweat went down in the first half and it unfortunately will cost him a large portion of the new season. It's a blow to Austin, who are down a veteran defender in their expansion campaign. For now, it looks like Zan Kolmanic could replace him on the back line.

Makes five saves in win Stuver made five saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 3-1 win over Colorado.
Impact Stuver was beated once during the second half, but made some big saves that kept his side in contention before the 11-minute scoring outburst during the second half that led to a 3-1 come-from-behind win. Despite of the three goals conceded, the goalkeeper made 12 saves over two matches and will try to keep it up during next Saturday's visit to Minnesota.
