Quotes:

Head Coach Carlos Llamosa

(On the result)

"Under the circumstances, I'd say the point is good. It's positive for us. That's not the result that we were looking for tonight here, but playing at the end with a man down, playing with guys we didn't use the last two matches, playing with two academy players, I think the fight was there. As a team, we didn't play our best game, but the fight was there We kept the shutout and we go home with one point and continue working."

(On starting SAFC Pro Academy members Urrutia and Walker)

"We came out with that decision because we played two games in four days plus the travel to California on Thursday, so we needed fresh legs. In this game tonight, we needed to come out with energy and make sure to match Monterey Bay's intensity on the field, and that's why we decided to use Leo [Urritia] and Landry [Walker], and I think they played well. I think they fulfilled the expectations.

Midfielder Mohamed Omar

(On the team's performance)

"Overall, it's good to get a point away from home. First and foremost, we came here with the goal of getting three points, but anytime you can get a clean sheet away from home and get a draw, I think that's something that we'll look to build on but something we're satisfied with in the moment Obviously, we created a couple chances but they weren't falling for us, so we knew that we had to hunker down and ensure that we kept a clean sheet for as long as possible to give our attackers the chance to go out and win the game."

Midfielder Landry Walker

(On integrating with the first team)

"Just every day, the way that they encourage me and show me so much love, it just gives me so much confidence to go out there and play, and I've really just seen such improvement in my game the past few months I've been with them."
