HERNÁN LOSADA“We had a lot of possession. But it was possession without real chances. All the things that Nashville did well are things we want to produce on our end like quick transitions, good crosses and good finishing. I want a team with less possession and more verticality and aggression. We manage to cross, but we are not in the right place in the penalty box. We manage to shoot, but they are not on target.”

JOEL WATERMAN“We need to start scoring by finding the right combinations in attack. We need to find the right rhythm and convert the chances we create. I think we kept the ball well. We could have shot more tonight. But the most important thing is probably to get those shots on target.”

AARON HERRERA“We got exactly what we expected from Nashville. We know they’re a team that was going to play safe. They’re very good in the air both offensively and defensively. But at this point, we need to figure out what we want to do and how we want to create chances.”
