WILFRIED NANCY

"We knew that this game would be difficult for us. It's a good point for us because they pushed a lot. We had difficult moments between the 55th and the 75th minutes. I'm proud of the team, they were resilient. I like that the players didn't quit when it became harder. I love that attitude. Nashville put pressure on us and I would have liked to have more control of the play sometimes. Clément was really good. He kept the team in the game. He had a good game and kept a good mentality. Nashville will play like this against every team. The only issue that I had is that we needed to close the ball carrier a little bit quicker. Nashville attacks with six players, sometimes seven depending on the situation."

SAMUEL PIETTE

"We knew that Nashville likes to get the ball wide and cross it in. That's what they wanted to do. We knew what was coming, so it's a big disappointment for us to concede a goal like that. I think we did really well in the first half, but they came out strong after. It's clear that my style of play is to be aggressive in the midfield. A yellow card in the 2nd minute changed forced me to adapt, considering there were 88 more minutes to play, and be more careful. But I didn't have to change too much as Nashville attacks a lot from the sides. It's a good that we don't feel satisfied with one point after this game."

ZACHARY BRAULT-GUILLARD

"Nashville is really strong offensively, mostly on crosses. They often have someone at the first post, at the second and even in the middle. They were more physically ready than Toronto and were more menacing offensively. Their crossing was a problem for us. But we also had our good moments. It's unfortunate to get a draw. I was better offensively and it's positive for the future. It's important to highlight Clément's work also. He works well and is a leader."
