Santino Quaranta Quotations

His suspension, it's not good the day of the game. I respect Peter's decision, I respect the head office and it's their decision. It's between Freddy and the team. We have a job to do and we're focused on winning MLS Cup.

We have the offensive capability to break any game open. We knew it was going to be tough tonight. Obviously they wanted to win here, and I think it was a moral victory for us, keeping a tie and going to RFK because RFK is tough. It will be a great atmosphere and we will be ready.

We'll be fine. We've been doing this for months now. We're very deep, and we've got a great group of guys that can step in. We'll bounce back.

We grew up together on the youth teams, too, so it's a fun opportunity for us.

We grew up together on the youth teams, too, so it's a fun opportunity for us. We're really looking forward to playing with each other again, and the younger guys are close anyway because you have a lot more in common.

I like these scrappy matches; battles, you know. That's what it's going to be in the playoffs, when it comes down to the end, so it was a good, fun game.

The field here is big and you can only pack it in to a certain extent when we're attacking with the kind of numbers that we're going to do this weekend. We have to get Christian Gomez in the game a little more. Just try to find him a little more and create stuff from the outside.

It's a great opportunity for us young guys to try to make a World Cup team. Playing every day in MLS has helped me. I just want to keep going forward.

I don't think we came out with the intensity we needed. It's about finishing your chances, and both teams had them and both didn't finish them. Now we've got to do a better job on the road.
