On the match tonight\u2026
\u201cI just spoke to the group, and I didn\u2019t recognize us in the first 45 minutes. The team you\u2019ve been watching had not lost its mentality in any half this season, but we did tonight. They (St. Louis) were stronger in challenges, won more aerial duels and had the better edge. Credit to them, they came in with something to prove and showed it. I was proud of the start to the second half. We got the goal we needed because of a shift in mentality. Petar stepped in aggressively to win the ball and set up the goal. But we have to be better at managing those moments. You can\u2019t sit back. You have to keep pushing for the second goal. I\u2019m disappointed with the goal we conceded. It was a second-phase set piece and it\u2019s one we have to deal with. The players know that. I thought the substitutes brought energy and quality. Joaquin and Santi combined well and created good chances late. I don\u2019t know why it was missing for stretches tonight. It was a flat performance, and I\u2019m sorry to the fans because we expect to win at home. We know we\u2019re capable of beating anyone. I\u2019ll look at myself and our preparation as well. This group is resilient and works hard. It just wasn\u2019t our night, but we\u2019ll be better next weekend.\u201d

Continued\u2026
\u201cSt. Louis is a team that loves the ball and plays in dangerous areas. When you\u2019re late against a team like that, you end up doing a lot of running and get stretched. That takes a toll. When you\u2019re organized and arrive on time with your pressure, you win the ball and avoid those long transitions. That comes down to anticipation, communication, awareness and understanding where players are on the field. These are things we\u2019ve done well all season. Credit to St. Louis, they were clean on the ball, moved it well and were strong up front. They found ways to play through pressure and made it difficult for us. We\u2019ll look at it, be honest and learn from it. We have high standards and we know what we want to be this season. Nights like this aren\u2019t us, and that\u2019s why it\u2019s frustrating. The group isn\u2019t satisfied with a point. They understand the importance of three, and I expect them to respond next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the physicality in tonights game\u2026
“It’s a mindset, being locked in, engaged and aggressive, and that\u2019s usually a staple for us. We knew they were going to dominate the ball. That\u2019s their identity and the philosophy of their coach. We had games to study, so we knew they would move you around and play with purpose. They\u2019re willing to take risks and don\u2019t just give the ball away. What I wanted was for us to punish those risks more, and we didn\u2019t do that enough tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
On Nolan Norris\u2026
\u201cNolan has a lot of years ahead of him in this league, and he\u2019s getting better every day. He\u2019s a fighter and never stops. He always shows up, and he has a great mentality. It wasn\u2019t a night where we had much rhythm, so no one really stood out. But in the last 30 minutes, we played better, broke them down and got into the box. We were knocking on the door, and with a little more time, maybe we found a second goal. Nolan is a player we value highly, and he\u2019s going to keep improving.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wingback Deedson
On the halftime message\u2026
\u201cI think we all know we started the match slow. We needed a better start to the second half. At halftime, Eric told us we had to raise our level and win more balls. We were a bit sloppy in the first half, but I think we started the second half the right way.\u201d<\/p>\n
On facing the LA Galaxy next week\u2026
\u201cWe have to start the game the way we played in the second half. We can\u2019t be sloppy. We\u2019re at home, so we have to give everything for our fans. We need to play our best and be aggressive in attack. We\u2019ve been waiting for this moment, and we\u2019re ready to perform at home.\u201d<\/p>\n
On becoming a wingback\u2026
\u201cI\u2019ve been trying to adapt and listen to the guys and the coaches, and they\u2019ve been helping me a lot. I told the coach I was open to learning the position, and when I get my chance, I\u2019ll do my best.\u201d<\/p>\n
Goalkeeper Michael Collodi
On the start to today\u2019s match\u2026
\u201cI think first and foremost, we\u2019re really disappointed with the result. We know we\u2019re a better team than what we showed tonight, and it\u2019s disappointing to come away with anything less than three points at home. We had chances we needed to take advantage of and some things defensively we needed to clean up, so overall it\u2019s pretty disappointing.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the cause of Dallas\u2019 sloppy start\u2026
\u201cThere\u2019s no one reason I can point to. It\u2019s something we\u2019re known for, coming out with the right mentality, running over teams and breaking them down. For whatever reason, it wasn\u2019t there tonight. We\u2019ll look at it, figure out what went wrong and fix it for next week.\u201d<\/p>\n
On winning at home\u2026
\u201cYou want to win every game, especially at home. Those are the ones you need to take care of most. This felt like a game where we should have taken all three points coming off a good week, so we\u2019re disappointed with that.\u201d<\/p>\n
On taking away anything from tonight\u2026
\u201cPersonally, I think there were a lot of good defensive actions. I thought we defended well in most moments, except for the goal, and there\u2019s always room to improve. Even when there are shots, there\u2019s always room to be better. We\u2019ll look at it and move on from there.\u201d<\/p>\n
