SAFC has the chance to jump back into first place in the USLC Western Conference this weekend, but the New Mexico team standing in its way is tough to break down and SAFC has lacked a scoring touch away from home for a while now. #Defend210 #NMvSA bluishmoonblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/20/new…

LaCava available again, Osorio out injured again for SAFC ahead of the big match in New Mexico tomorrow...we'll see if there are any gametime changes, hopefully no season-ending injury in warmups this time 🙃 #Defwnd210 #NMvSA

One late addition to the injury report for SAFC...aaand it's one of the worst players you can lose for such a big matchup, Jorge Hernandez 🙃 #Defend210 #NMvSA

Medranda with his first start since May 28, LaCava straight back into the lineup after missing last week through injury...Salim also on the bench after his 25-day contract was announced yesterday. #Defend210 #NMvSA

SAFC could top the West with a win tonight, but it'll be a steep mountain to climb against a solid New Mexico side...and SAFC threw a curveball by benching my player to watch 🙃 See how I worked two puns in to go with this picture!? 😁 #Defend210 #NMvSA bluishmoonblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/20/new…

NM 1-0 SAFC (10') Ball lofted into the box and Lindsey heads it in with authority, putting SAFC down early. #NMvSA

New Mexico nearly adds another goal as the attacker rounds Sanchez, but a heroic tackle forces a corner which didn't amount to much. #NMvSA

NM 1-0 SAFC (HT) Yeah, feels about right, both sides have had their moments getting forward but New Mexico has been more dangerous and got a deserved goal...we'll see how the second half goes, anything is possible 🤷‍♂️ #NMvSA

A couple subs for SAFC at halftime, Nicky Hernandez keeps his perfect attendance record as he comes in for Jimmy Medranda and Abdi Salim makes his SAFC debut in place of Almir Soto. #Defend210 #NMvSA

NM 1-1 SAFC (55') New Mexico a bit too aggressive with its challenge on an SAFC player in the box, Taintor beats Tambakis from the penalty spot to draw SAFC level...not the nicest way to equalize, but it counts just the same 🤷‍♂️ #NMvSA

NM 2-1 SAFC (59') That level score didn't last long as Akale, who I warned you about in my preview, took a shot that Sanchez couldn't fully save as it still ended up in the net despite a deflection off the goalkeeper. #NMvSA

NM 2-2 SAFC (75') SAFC draws level for the second time tonight, this time through Buckmaster. #NMvSA

Paredes with a second yellow card and SAFC will play the last few minutes plus stoppage time down a man...big test for the team's defending and resilience here. #NMvSA

NM 3-2 SAFC (90'+) I said just a minute or two ago this would be a test for SAFC and...it failed pretty quickly, Luis Fernando redirects a ball into the box to once again put the hosts ahead. #NMvSA

NM 4-2 SAFC (90'+) Barely finished posting about the third goal and Vargas pounces on a loose ball in the box and pokes it home...well, that's that 🙃 #NMvSA

NM 4-2 SAFC (FT) As it was, that was a bit of a fortunate draw with defenders scoring from a penalty and a putback...but once Paredes got sent off it crumbled quickly for SAFC, one-two punch from New Mexico to show why it's top of the West 🤷‍♂️ #Defend210 #NMvSA

Although it wasn't pretty, San Antonio FC managed to secure a 2-2 draw away to top-ranked New Mexico United on Saturday night ...is how I would have framed #NMvSA before everything fell apart late with a red card and two more goals conceded 😬 #Defend210 bluishmoonblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/22/new…

People speculating this is a signing, I highly doubt it...I'd guess the checkerboard jersey is coming back in some capacity, either as a pregame top or a third jersey 🤷‍♂️
