Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes
On Sporting KC’s 2-0 loss to Deportivo Saprissa…
Both of their goals resulted from set pieces. We definitely could have done a lot better in those situations, and we should have. But I’m not going to deny the fact that we battled hard. There were just a lot of things that went against us. We went into the game not thinking we’d have to sub two guys in the first half. You don’t see us sub much in the first half at all, let alone two. It just puts a lot on us.
On Benny Feilhaber and Igor Juliao’s first half injuries…
Benny’s might have been (a surface injury). I don’t know about Igor. Igor has played so many games for us this year and we just don’t have anyone else we can throw out there at the moment. We’re going to have to mix and match again going into the next (game).
