What was said?

“I think the main key would be to stay focused on ourselves and try to do the same performance, the same teamwork that we did in the last two games, like we did on Saturday (against Toronto). We won that game, but I also want to talk about the team performance. So I think we did a great job in the first and second half. I think we got through the game, too, when we didn’t have the ball; we didn’t give up many chances. So it was a good game defensively and offensively, and we have to stay focused on ourselves and try to keep the good things for the next game.” – Tristan Muyumba

“It’s about staying present, not resting on your laurels. Whatever happened on the road before, we put it behind us and move forward. Every game is a new opportunity for us to improve and get points. Regardless of what happened with them (New England), I’m sure they’ll be motivated, but that’s not my group. I’m not really worried about their mindset on it. It’s just about those guys and making sure our mindset is to think about what’s going on right in front of us and stay grounded. And get as many points as we can.” – Rob Valentino
