From Travis McCorkle: We had 20 shots can't make mistakes defensively that we did to allow their goal. 20 shots aren't 20 goals, and only having one is something that we will need to continue to get better at. We made adjustment at halftime with a change in formation. That part was good, helping us pressure them and steal the ball from them. I have to give Tielua credit for saving the second goal that they could have had by clearing the ball from the goal line.
