D.C. United's interim head coach Kevin Flanagan is optimistic for the upcoming match against Austin FC despite the team's poor recent form. After losing six of their last seven matches, the team sits 14th in the Eastern Conference. Their recent 2-1 loss to Columbus Crew featured a standout return from Christian Benteke, overshadowed by Aaron Herrera's late red card. Flanagan emphasizes the importance of extra training time, with the team focusing on improving play patterns and exploiting opponent weaknesses to achieve better results in future games.
"I think that is the key, having that time to get onto the pitch and dig into some details. In possession, out of possession, in transition."
"These things just need to turn into results in order for any movement into a positive direction related to the table."
