MARCO DONADEL
"I have the feeling that we didn't give our best on the field. We did what we wanted off the ball. We minimized their qualities and we were brave when they had the ball. But we didn't have the same courage when we had possession of the ball. The first goal we conceded was Messi's incredible quality, but I think that we were very good defensively in the first half. The other goals were mistakes. However, it's not about the mistakes, it's about the behaviour. I think that we could have done more in this game."
GEORGE CAMPBELL
"We know that Miami has quality and that sometimes there is nothing you can do about it like on the first goal. At the same time, we know that the effort could have been better. We also know that we just need to be less timid and more cutthroat in both boxes. You need to get tighter to guys and we need to take our chances. We need to be more patient and, at times, more direct. Maybe we showed them too much respect. I think that there were a lot more opportunities for us to score and we didn't do it."
CADEN CLARK
"Yes, they have the best player in the world and it plays with your mind a little bit. But, as a team, they are still beatable. You saw a late run from us, finally calming down, playing between the pockets a little bit. We had a build-up goal. We created more chances and got into good spaces. I think it's going to give us some more confidence in those moments. It's an unfortunate loss and they deserved the win tonight. I don't think we were at our best, but we will go again on Saturday."
