felt three tie top
We didn't want to play for a tie. We felt a tie would have been just as disappointing as a loss. So we said 'go for it' and put three up top and three in the back.
alone ball gave good guy open pushing three
Zach made three very good saves. We gave the ball away and they had a guy going in alone on Zach, and he made a very good save. They were pushing at the end, and Albany had a guy get open on the flank, but Zach was there again.
definitely three tough
They play three up-top and try to come at you offensively, ... It will definitely be a tough game, especially at their place.
last played year
We played them well last year and we want to do the same this time,
last stronger team
I think once we get the team on the field, we're better than last year. We're stronger and more balanced.
list rather
We'd rather be on the list come November,
advantage chances corner marking poor took
We had our chances in the beginning, we didn't put them in. It was poor marking on us on the corner kick, and they took advantage of it.
close
I would say he's pretty close to 100 percent,
kept pace
If we had kept it up at that pace it would have been 88-2,
crosses dangerous difficult game pace
I didn't like the urgency, the pace of the game in the first half. We really didn't make dangerous crosses in and make the goalie make any difficult decisions. After Roland's semi-breakaway at the beginning, we really didn't have it.
goals good guys obviously scoring telling trouble
Obviously we've been having some trouble scoring goals lately. We're telling the guys they've just got to be patient. We're getting good chances, the goals will come.
bad felt four goals initial left rebounds
I felt bad for Zach because we left him so exposed. There were a lot of goals off rebounds and I think that on at least four of the goals, he made the initial save.
attack defend possess
We want to defend well and be able to possess the ball. And attack them quick.
game happen hope
You hope that every game is not close, but in this game it doesn't happen that way. The disappointing thing is when we give up two restart goals.
