Brandon Vazquez of Austin FC is set to face San Diego FC, his hometown team, for the first time as a professional player. Raised in San Diego and previously playing with clubs like Atalanta United and FC Cincinnati, Vazquez reflects on the emotional significance of this match, especially as he gets to compete in front of family. Despite this personal milestone, he acknowledges Austin's struggles in the current season, noting a desire for better team performance and cohesion as they aim for playoff contention.
"Going back and playing in my hometown is going to be incredible. Growing up, I would've never thought San Diego would have a team. Now that there is one, being able to play in front of my family is special, I'm excited for it."
"Unfortunately, it's felt like a slow progression. Ideally, we would be firing on all cylinders, all the forwards scoring goals every time we have a chance, you know?"
