DC Power Football Club Post-Match Quotes

Head Coach Omid Namazi

On today's match result...

"Today was the most complete game that we've played," Namazi said. "We limited the chances for a very good team in Carolina and produced enough chances to score goals and win the game. Unfortunately, the only thing that was missing is that last touch and the finishing touch that we couldn't muster up."

Midfielder Emily Colton

On the strengthened motivation heading into the second half of the season...

"I think the energy we brought today was amazing and we created very good chances on goal," Colton said. "Although the goals didn't come, the whole team put in a solid defensive effort and coming out with a clean sheet is always a goal of ours so it's a huge credit to our defense. We will use this game as motivation and energy for the second half of the season, and I know we will all come back very motivated and hungry for wins."

Goalkeeper Morgan Aquino

On the defensive performance against Carolina Ascent FC...

"Today I thought we brought the grit that we've been looking for over the past 10 or so games," Aquino said. "We brought that throughout the whole 90 and the backline put on a really good 90-minute performance and that helped secure the clean sheet."
