beat colorado confidence deserved game home thoroughly win winning
We really need to go out and beat Colorado on Saturday. They're still right at our heels, so it's important to get the win in that respect, but it also important to keep winning and keep the confidence high, especially at home going into the playoffs. I thought that we thoroughly deserved the game and I would have been disappointed if we didn't come out with a win.
bit came deserved ended felt good last playing playoffs team year
They've started very, very well. They came off last year a little bit disappointed about the way things ended for them. I know they felt they should have got to the playoffs and probably deserved to. So, they have come out this year after it. They are a very good team and are playing well.
cost definitely deserved errors goals played
We definitely deserved to get something from the game. We played well enough, even with 10 men, to get something from the game. But our own errors cost us two goals in the first half,
came chances create deserved good half mostly players pressure second strong team
In the first half they had a pretty strong team out there, we had mostly young players and the reserves. They edged the first half and probably deserved to be up 1-0 at halftime. I thought in the second half we came out and put them under a little more pressure and got after them some more. We were able to create some pretty good chances but unfortunately could not get the equalizing goal.
despite gear
We just could not get into gear even after we scored despite having most of the possession.
energy life middle missed
We missed his energy and his life through the middle of the park.
ability add excited happy player
We're very excited and happy to be able to add a player with Scott's experience, ability and leadership,
excited great heard talent
We're very excited about it. Young kid, a lot of talent, heard a lot of great things about him. It will be interesting to see how he does with us.
everybody game impact played plenty time
It was an end-to-end game with plenty of chances. The humidity probably had a little impact on everybody -- the first time everyone has played in that kind of weather.
field home knew lift ourselves reason result results spirit starting took
The spirit has always been pretty good. We always had belief, we just weren't getting any results because of some little things, ... There wasn't any one reason that things weren't going right so we knew that once we got the first result that things would lift off. This is our home, our home field and it took a while to give it ourselves a home-field advantage, but we're starting to do that.
attracts game holds passes people scoring sees
There's so much more to his game than just scoring goals. He sees passes that other people don't see. He holds the ball. He attracts a lot of attention.
again freedom gives good middle outside playing ronnie switch
Ronnie started in the middle but he has freedom to roam. With Ramon playing outside of him, and with Ramon being comfortable outside or inside, it's good that they can switch and that again gives us good flexibility.
cup high hunt obviously open second start
At the start of the year, we set our goals, and this is very high on the list. Obviously MLS Cup is the No. 1 goal. We put the Lamar Hunt (U.S.) Open Cup second to that.
