THIERRY HENRY

"We need to learn from our mistakes. It's a mistake that we couldn't make at this point in the game. It cost us. We created many scoring chances and one-on-ones, but we did not take advantage of them. Now we go back to work to see what we can do in Vancouver."

ZACHARY BRAULT-GUILLARD

"We had a good first half. I'm disappointed because we controlled the game and we lost on a mistake. It happens at the highest level and you pay when you make a mistake. But we are professionals, so we will go to Vancouver to try to keep a good position in the MLS standings with the goal to win both games. We want to bring back six points."

SAMUEL PIETTE

"It's devastating to lose like that because we gave the game away. We have to take this game and learn from what we did well and what we missed. We're still in this. No team is unbeatable, at home or away."
