Post-game comments from head coach Wilfried Nancy, Mathieu Choinière and Joel Waterman are available here.

WILFRIED NANCY

"The guys put in a good performance. I'm pleased. We had to remain calm after the goal we conceded. But the players are progressing. I feel it and I see it in training. They are proving they are capable of handling many different situations. We are in good form right now and we will enjoy it but we have an important game against Charlotte next week too."

MATHIEU CHOINIÈRE

"It felt great to get back on the pitch. I've known Samuel [Piette] for a long time so it was easy to play together. We trained together during the week. It was good to be back in the midfield. I found my bearings as the game progressed. The chemistry in the team is excellent right now. We work hard in training. It's a continuation of last year."

JOEL WATERMAN

"Everyone is getting on the board right now. You can see different people scoring and we are doing it at the right moments. With Champions League at the start of the season, it was hard. But now we're getting a flow. The locker room is strong. But it is still early in the season, and we want more from this team. Today was a special day. We make sure we stay calm regardless of what happens in a match."
