THIERRY HENRY

"We talked about it after every game. Once again, we didn't cover the run. Whether you play a back four or a back five, you will get punish. That's a big mistake. We don't shoot and we don't cross the ball enough. We find ourselves in good situations, but we don't shoot on goal. We have to congratulate Nashville, who played well. They were alert and their striker made the run and scored."

JUKKA RAITALA

"I made a foul and they played really fast. I don't remember if they had other good opportunities than that. But it's a very bad goal to concede. We still have two big games to go. Our focus is now on Sunday with another big game for us. We need to remain positive and win that game. It's not a fun situation but it is what it is. We have to accept it and we can't hide behind it. When we play football we need to focus on the game."

SAMUEL PIETTE

"I'm under the impression that Nashville played their game well. They knew we are good in possession. Their defensive block was so low that it was tough to get through. We did everything to comeback to the score after the mistake on their goal. We also lacked opportunism and didn't create enough chances. Orlando will come out strong, but we can compete against any team. It's on us to show the passion and desire to try and keep our playoff position."
