Player to watch

Amine Bassi has yet to score a goal this regular season but hasn’t struggled to make an impact offensively. Bassi, who was the Dynamo’s top league scorer with 12 goals and four assists last year, collected his team-leading fourth assist on a first-half goal by Herrera against Sporting KC. Bassi is currently in the top five league-wide in key passes and shot-creating actions per 90 minutes plus 13th in progressive passes. The 26-year-old midfielder hasn’t found the back of the net since a 1-1 draw against Real Salt Lake in round one of the playoffs last Nov. Diego Rubio and Sebastián Driussi lead Austin FC in league scoring with three goals apiece.
