The MLS NEXT Cup Playoffs begin this Sunday at the Richard Siegel Soccer Complex in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Austin FC’s U-17 Academy squad will represent the Verde & Black as they aim to capture the league title.
Austin qualified for the MLS NEXT Cup Playoffs by defeating Houston Dynamo U-17 3-0 in a decisive match last weekend as the two teams finished tied in the regular season standings.
The tournament is structured as a single elimination event. Austin will need to win six straight to lift the title. Each team in the tournament is guaranteed at least three games, meaning teams eliminated in the round of 32 or the round of 16 enter the Showcase portion of the event.
