MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER QUOTE SHEET
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 - FC DALLAS 0, HOUSTON DYNAMO 3
FC DALLAS HEAD COACH STEVE MORROW
On the game:
"I'm very, very disappointed by our lack of commitment and effort in the second half. I think the goal 30 seconds before halftime completely changed the course of the game. We gave up a bad, bad goal in a very bad time and never quite recovered from it. We were comfortable. We weren't playing our best offensively but were solid defensively. Our second half performance was pathetic."
HOUSTON DYNAMO HEAD COACH DOMINIC KINNEAR
On the game:
"I don't think we have mastery over any team in this league, to be honest. They gave us some problems today. There could have been some calls go our way that one way or another, maybe changed the outcome of the day. I thought in the second half, we were disciplined defensively and were good breaking out. As the game went on, we knew they were going to throw more guys forward and that can make it tough for the defense. So, you need to make sure that when you do win the ball, you try and get it up the field as quickly as possible and leave those guys behind. Defensively, we were pretty solid and we took our chances."
HOUSTON DYNAMO DEFENDER EDDIE ROBINSON
On the game:
"This was a classic Dallas-Houston matchup. We play each other in preseason, regular season, Open Cup and familiarity breeds contempt. I think the referee could have called it a little closer and maybe some of those things at the end wouldn't have happened but hindsight is 20/20. For us, we look back and are happy that we got three points and are looking forward to a nice short trip home. Then, we will have a good week of resting up to play LA because if I'm not mistaken, they have won two in a row and are on a hot streak."
