POSTGAME QUOTES

FC Cincinnati Interim Head Coach Tyrone Marshall

On the loss in comparision with a close one

"The close ones are the ones that hurt the most. Because you felt like you had opportunity, We were down 3, 4-1 and you know the game is out of reach so this one - it always hurts to lose games but you look back at it and say hey, this one we couldn't do anything else. ''

FC Cincinnati MF Kyle Scott

"I think we started all right. I just think they found their spaces better than us. It was easy for them to get through us throughout the game, it was 1-2 passes and they had a chance at goal. For us it was, they got back as a team pretty well, they were compact and it was hard to break them down.''

FC Cincinnati F Calvin Harris

On the 4-4-2, Brandon Vazquez

''I used to play up front when I was younger, and as I got older the 4-3-3 became popular and I started going out on the left side of the 3 up front. I played up front in the past so I can play there with 2, it's much easier. Especially having someone like Brandon whose very good about holding the ball up, he was very strong today. And I thought he had a great performance and a great finish as well.
