THIERRY HENRY

"We had the ball for most of the time against Toronto, but we ended up losing. This time, we had the ball in the first half, and in the second half it was a bit more difficult. Now, hopefully we can move on in this tournament. But on the other end, it was important for us to bounce back in the league, and now we're back in the mix in the Eastern Conference."

CLÉMENT DIOP

"I made two kick saves, but the team's performance is what's most important. The guys gave everything tonight, including the ones that came in. Credit to everyone tonight who gave it their all."

VICTOR WANYAMA

"We've been working hard in training and it hasn't been easy for us. We lost the two first games, but we're a good group. We take the positive from each game and we learn quickly. This is the result we needed tonight, now hopefully we can use this momentum to keep going."
