San Antonio FC was not about to let the same story get written two weeks in a row. After blowing a 2 goal lead against a 10-man RGV in the second half last week, SAFC put the hammer down on New Mexico United after Midfielder Saalih Muhammad was sent off with a straight red card in the 21' (officially noted as "offensive language" as the reasoning). San Antonio FC (9-7-9) overwhelmed New Mexico United (8-10-7) with 5 goals, three in the second half, as SAFC routed the expansion team playing in their first ever match at Toyota Field.

The win marked 50 regular season wins for SAFC in USL Championship play all time, and sent 6,057 SAFC fans home very happy.

“This week we learned a lesson from last weekend, which I thought was very important,” SAFC Head Coach Darren Powell said. “Our players made sure they applied themselves in the second half and now we need to make sure we get ready and prepare ourselves for the road trip next Friday.”
