Postgame Quotes | July 26, 2024
“... relative to that, we were really pleased. We wanted to take some steps forward performance wise. I felt like we were very good value for at least a draw coming to the end of the game, if you take the last 10 minutes out of it, so in that sense we were really pleased. The biggest thing for me tonight was that we had a positive step [where] we felt like there was a performance that we could be proud of. We felt like with the group that we had, we were making progress and we had that. So as much as the result is frustrating and we’ll be really disappointed with the manner in which we lost the game, we were happy and there’s definitely something that we can take forward to Tuesday and something that we can take into the second half of the MLS season.”
