Coach Nemzer's Take
"I think we gotta get back to the basics this upcoming week. I think we have to go back to what makes us special as a team and we gotta get back to competing. The four goals we let up were off a corner, we lost our mark twice, and we gave up a penalty kick. So it wasn't anything tactically, it just comes down to those individual moments. We gotta get back to those moments".
Up Next
