QUOTES

New York City FC Head Coach Ronny Deila:

On getting the three points...

"We looked like a really good football team today...we did it for 90 minutes. We worked so hard together, we are disciplined, we are good moving the ball. They almost did not create anything. It was a really good football game from our side and this is a tough place to come."

New York City FC Forward Héber:

On staying confident despite not scoring goals earlier this season...

"It doesn't affect me. Everyone knows when I step on the pitch in training or in games, I give everything to the team. Sometimes I don't score, but I give everything to the team. I'm so thankful for my teammates to support me, coaching staff, everyone. Today was my first MLS goal of the season and I hope more are coming."

New York City FC Defender Joe Scally:

On making his MLS debut after missing most of last season with an injury...

"With the injury it was a setback. It was all a waiting game. I was patient and kept my mindset right. I focused on the things I needed to work on and it all led up to today. I won't forget this day."
