San Antonio FC seeks playoff push against New Mexico United at home

San Antonio FC hosts New Mexico United on Saturday at Toyota Field, aiming to end a scoring drought as they strive for a playoff spot in the USL Championship. SAFC (9-7-12) is eighth in the Western Conference, currently holding a narrow three-point lead over teams vying for the final playoff positions. New Mexico (14-7-7), already secured in the playoffs, sits second in the conference.

Defender Mitchell Taintor highlighted the need for team cohesion as they face the challenge against a New Mexico squad that defeated them four times last season.
