In a 1-1 draw on Saturday night, Austin FC and the San Jose Earthquakes battled to a stalemate at the Austin venue. Defender Guilherme Biro came to the rescue late in the match with a goal in second-half stoppage time, marking his third goal of the season. The match saw San Jose take the lead early in the eighth minute when Beau Leroux scored a left-footed strike from a corner.

Just moments after, Austin had a chance to equalize, but the video assistant referee disallowed the goal for a handball. Despite the setback, Austin FC remains in 14th place in the Western Conference, while San Jose, currently in 10th place, had previously played to a draw for the second consecutive match following a four-game losing streak.

Austin FC's next fixture is an away game against Colorado, while San Jose will host San Diego in the upcoming match.
