Austin FC swept aside Club Puebla 3–0 in a dominant Leagues Cup Group Stage performance, with Myrto Uzuni's hat-trick anchoring a clinical home display. The hosts controlled proceedings with 53% possession and registered 11 shots, five of which found the target, though their expected goals tally of 1.45 suggested clinical finishing rather than overwhelming dominance. Puebla offered little resistance offensively, managing just one shot on target from ten attempts and accumulating only 0.59 xG, while their goalkeeper faced five on-target efforts and saved just 40% of them. Austin's goalkeeper was largely untroubled, facing only a single shot on target and maintaining a clean sheet with a 100% save rate. The tactical battle saw Austin's 4–2–2–2 setup prove more effective than Puebla's 4–2–3–1, with the home side's width and midfield control limiting their opponents' creative opportunities. Uzuni's three-goal haul moves Austin into a commanding position in the group.
