QUOTES FROM COACH
“We’re always happy to get a win. It’s a good starting point for us, and exhibition games are just that. We’re looking at new players that just joined the team, we’re looking at how well they play with each other and different combinations, and we’re looking to implement our style of play. I thought we had a lot of good moments and this early in the season that’s all we can really ask for.” said Head Coach Diego Bocanegra.
