game opens
If we take the lead, they have to come out and it opens the game up.
behind bodies expect exploit holes hope leave road wants
I don't expect anything else. The way they play, they are flinging bodies forward. When you do that, you leave holes behind you, and we hope to exploit that. Everyone wants to go on the road and win, but we wouldn't be too disappointed with a draw, either.
both couple decent deserve eight felt giving good halftime home lost minutes period played results second stuff though tonight took
I think we deserve it. We have had some good results at home and away from home. Tonight we should have won, even though we were two down but we felt we could get something. We said at halftime that 30 of the 45 minutes we played some decent stuff and felt we were in charge. There was just a period of eight to 10 minutes where we lost it and they got both their goals. It took a couple minutes after giving up the second one before we got back in it.
ball far liked moved playing team
The first 45 minutes, we moved the ball as well as any team I've been with. Would we have liked to put the ball in the net, well, yes, but as far as playing the game, that's how you play the game.
behind exactly given good national team time training
(The national team players) are exactly where we thought they would be. They've had good training time behind them, and have given everyone else a boost.
best corner happens hard second stand sure
In the first half, we were second best on everything. In the second half, we wanted to make sure we at least would stand in the corner and make it hard for them. And that's what happens when you don't give up.
