We never like losing, especially in the manner that we lost the game. It was a tough and\u00a0physical\u00a0game. Took the\u00a0lead going\u00a0into halftime, which was\u00a0a\u00a0positive.\u00a0Tried\u00a0to\u00a0maintain\u00a0that defensive structure and not give them too many\u00a0opportunities. A lot of their\u00a0opportunities\u00a0in the first half came from\u00a0distance. I felt in\u00a0moments,\u00a0we could have been more\u00a0threatening\u00a0in transition and make sure we had the willingness to run and support the attack. Obviously,\u00a0had\u00a0to make some changes at halftime that were forced on us, and then overall we are not happy with the defeat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Pride will\u00a0head into the second game of the three-game road stretch as they get set to visit Denver Summit FC on\u00a0Saturday, May 16, at DICK&#8217;S Sporting Goods\u00a0Park.
