Austin FC enters it’s first derby week of the season sitting in 2nd place both in the West and the Supporter’s Shield standings with 17 points through 8 games. For perspective, ATXFC did not reach 17 points until August 21st last year on matchday #20. “Easy” early schedule or not, the improvement is real and…
If you are unfamiliar with the concept of The False 9’s La Murga Report, click here. This week, we would be remiss if we didn’t highlight the release of La Murga de Austin Vol. 1, the band’s first collection of recorded songs and chants. You can find the album on Spotify and Apple Music. The fact…
After a grueling 120 minute performance on Wednesday night, most of Austin would have been correct in assuming Diego Fagundez was due to sit out at least a large portion of Saturday night’s match against the Vancouver whitecaps. What unsuspecting Austinites did not know was that upon their arrival back home on Wednesday night, dozens…

Let Tracy Tree be your guide to all things San Antonio as we learn about our first ever U.S. Open Cup opponent: San Antonio FC.
(Nota Bene: You are reading an historic document. This is the first post in which every False 9 staff writer wrote a section of the post.)
