PORvSKC Postgame Quotes: Reaction from Peter Vermes, Benny Feilhaber and Felipe Hernandez

Sporting Kansas City Manager Peter Vermes

Thoughts on the game...
“We had a good game, we did what we had to do. We should have scored one more goal, but we gave away a bad first goal. We had possession of the ball, but I submit what I said earlier. Too many calls went the wrong way for both teams.”

On the team’s upcoming schedule... 
“We have to go get three points anywhere we can.”


Sporting Kansas City midfielder Benny Feilhaber

Overall thoughts on the match…
“Just disappointing. Tough place to play. We got a goal to go up and were not able to come away with anything, so it's disappointing. We’re in a position where we have to get points every game and obviously today we had the chance there late and we weren’t able to come up with anything.”

On his goal..
“No, I was crossing it. I’m sure a lot of people would claim the shot, but I tried to cross it, miss-hit it and I think I got hurt in the process also. Frustrating night all around.”


Sporting Kansas City midfielder Felipe Hernandez

On making his MLS Debut...
“It feels exciting. To be in an atmosphere like this it’s crazy and it's been my dream. Just gutted for the result.”

On bouncing back from this defeat… 
“We’ve got to just put it in the past and move on and try to get some points next weekend.”
