chances couple created gave good great night sound
Very very good performance, very solid. I thought that defensively we were sound all night and never really gave them a sniff, created a couple of great chances going forward,
chances close couple dominated dragged few gave goal half hard knew minutes night ourselves played toll took toward twice wednesday
First half we dominated the game. We had a couple chances (and) the first goal we knew was going to be important. We dragged ourselves back twice from behind; we showed a lot of character. ... We played 120 hard minutes on Wednesday night and I think it took its toll on us toward the end. We couldn't get close enough to them at times and we gave up a few chances.
bad decent forward gave great point
It's very disappointing. We were decent defensively, we had some great opportunities going forward that just didn't go in and at the other end we gave up a bad goal. It's getting to the point where we need to put things right.
bad belt character game gave happy mark three twice win
It's the first game of the season, you want to get off the mark and get that first win under your belt so we're very happy to get the three points. ... We gave up two bad goals, but with that, we were able to come back twice which is good. We showed a lot of character and that is something I think is really important.
boost few gave happy week worked
(I didn't know until) this morning. We were happy to have him back; he gave us a boost and a lift. We worked on a few different things during the week but having him was only a positive.
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.
