Game Central

The Twos are on a scoring spree and showing no signs of slowing down as they barrel into this weekend, hosting Austin FC II for the first time this year. The Texan side is ranked third in the Western Conference with a miraculous undefeated streak of 11 matches.

Guess how many matches they’ve played since hosting the young Loons in the season opener? That’s right: 11. Minnesota remains the only team in the league to have defeated Austin all season, and coming off a 4-3 win over Sporting Kansas City, they’re in fine form. Leading scorer Marcus Caldeira (7) looks to keep racking up the goals, Keane Perkins will continue to man the posts, and a slew of attacking options positions Head Coach Fanendo Adi to get creative up front. This one’s going to be electric. Here’s everything you need to know before you head out.

Free parking at the National Sports Center will be available in Lots F and G and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

No glass

No charcoal

No feeding any wildlife

Trash and recycling must be properly disposed of

Gates
Fans should plan to enter the NSC Stadium via the Northwest Gate. There will only be one entry gate available on game day, opening one hour prior to kickoff.

Ticketing
Tickets are online purchase only. If you don't have tickets ahead of gametime, there will be QR codes posted on signs by the gates of NSC for fans to use to purchase their tickets.

Security Screening and Bag Policy
Standard MNUFC screening procedures will be in place for MNUFC2 games at the National Sports Center. Each guest will be subject to walk through a magnetometer, and guests with bags will be asked to open their bags for a brief search. Bags do not need to be clear, but they do need to be 12” x 6” x 12” or smaller to be allowed into the stadium. Guests with diaper bags or medical bags will have their bags checked and then tagged, but will not have size restrictions. There will not be a bag check service available for games played at the National Sports Center. Any guests with non-admissible bags will be asked to return their bags to their car.

Food and Beverage
Grab-and-go concession items will be available for purchase inside the stadium, including chips and peanuts. There will also be beer, soda and water available to pair with your snacks. Bringing food and/or beverages from outside the stadium is prohibited.

Cashless Purchasing
All ticket and in-stadium purchases will be conducted in a touchless manner.

Autograph Alley
MNUFC2 players will be signing autographs on their way back to the locker room after the match. Fans who want to score some signatures should meet behind sections 3 and 4 of the seating bowl, where they will be guided down to the autograph area by event staff. Fans of all ages are invited to participate.

Postgame PKs
Once the players have cleared the field after Autograph Alley, fans between the ages of 3 and 15 will have the chance to take a PK on the very same turf that the team plays on. After signing a waiver, participants gathered behind sections 3 and 4 of the seating bowl will be guided down to the field by event staff.
