not putting the game away at that point when we're having all those attacking chances ... and obviously a crucial, crucial mistake by a defender."
On Javier Morales' free kick equalizer:
"From where I was standing it was fantastic. I've been watching him train and hitting free kicks and obviously I've seen him hit some free kicks on some videos before he came here, so I knew he was capable of it. It was good for the entire team really, to get Javier Morales' first goal -- a well-taken goal -- in a pressure situation."
On the RSL debut of Yura Movsisyan:
"He was fantastic. I thought he was very, very good and he did exactly what we asked of him, which was to play the high forward and hold the ball up and involve other players and he did that. I'm not 100 percent certain that's the role he wants, but he did a very good job of it tonight."
On the play of Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan:
"In the middle of the second half I think he really sparked up and, obviously, getting the chance to take the penalty kick and prove a couple of things, improve on his past couple, was probably a very good boost for him. When we made the switch and pulled out our right defender and went to three in the back that was my biggest concern -- if Landon gets the ball are we going to have somebody to deal with him right away? And it came true, I don't know, 30 seconds after we made the sub. So perhaps it was a learning experience for the coach."
On the addition of Garth Lagerwey as the club's new general manager:
"Myself and our entire coaching staff are extremely pleased to have Garth Lagerwey involved in the club at the top. For us to have somebody that is young like we are, is passionate about the game, is willing to work extremely hard, is probably the most analytical person I've ever met, and, on top of all of that, has enough professional soccer experience to really lend something in that department, all of us are extremely excited about it.
REAL SALT LAKE MIDFIELDER ANDY WILLIAMS
On the game:
"I thought we played a good game of soccer. We got a lot of chances today which we should have finished, and it came back and bit us in the butt."
On continually pushing forward for the win:
"I thought we were outplaying them the whole time. We weren't finishing our chances. If we had finished our chances it would've been like 3-0 at that time. If you give a player like Landon (Donovan) room to run, he'll burn you. He's a world class player and we got caught on a counter."
REAL SALT LAKE FORWARD YURA MOVSISYAN
On joining Real Salt Lake:
"A good team, a very good team. Like I said, I'm very excited to be here, very happy to be here with the guys. Great guys, great players, we just got unlucky tonight. If we put the chances away, L.A. doesn't have a chance."
On last Friday's deadline deal to RSL:
"Actually surprised, but very happy. Very relieved. I guess I wasn't getting playing time over there (with the Kansas City Wizards). As a professional, you just want to play, you just want to get out there and play. At the end of the day I am just thankful to Jason (Kreis) and the club for doing this and getting me out here."
On the play that resulted in the first RSL goal:
"I thought I was going to score on that one. Just at the last second (LA goalkeeper Joe) Cannon had my leg and I couldn't really go anywhere. The one thing you can do there is go down."
On his play in his RSL debut:
"I thought it was good. I can do much, much better. If I get to play with these guys a little longer than just two days I'll fit in great in here."
REAL SALT LAKE FORWARD JAVIER MORALES
On his first MLS goal:
"I am happy. It was nice to get the tie, because that was at least what we deserved after what we did the entire game."
On all the scoring opportunities for Real Salt Lake:
"I think we had the clearest opportunities to score. They had one counterattack to get the penalty, and then we were pushing forward looking for the win."
On adjusting to the play in MLS:
"The hardest thing for me right now is I have a hurt shoulder and it is hard for me to recover to be 100 percent, but I am working hard, my teammates are helping me a lot and I am very happy to be here."
REAL SALT LAKE MIDFIELDER KYLE BECKERMAN
On the game:
"We dominated, we had more chances, and to not even come out with a point... to even have to fight to get the point. We played good soccer. The thing we didn't do was finish our chances. We really felt that today was one of our better games that we played and to not get the win, it's a gutted feeling."
On RSL's troubles finishing at goal:
"(Galaxy goalkeeper) Joe (Cannon) I think made a couple good saves, and we just didn't get it done. When the ball is in front of the goal you just got to get it done somehow."
LA GALAXY HEAD COACH FRANK YALLOP
On the match:
"I am unhappy that we didn't get all three (points). I mean, with five minutes to go in the game and one goal up, it would have been good to come away with obviously all three, but (RSL) stuck with it, and they scored a free kick goal, which was very well-placed."
LA GALAXY FORWARD GAVIN GLINTON
On scoring his second goal of the year:
"We got the counter and someone sprung it out wide, and I just kept running down the sideline. I didn't think I was going to catch it to be honest, but (Landon Donavon) slowed it down and I found the hole and I just got the goal."
LA GALAXY MIDFIELDER LANDON DONOVAN
On the game:
"We can't be entirely displeased with ourselves. Going down 1-0 on the road is always tough and we did a good job to get back in the game. It would have felt great to have won and, at the end of the day, we'll take it."
On his penalty kick conversion:
"It was more a (feeling of) relief than a joy. I didn't become a bad penalty kicker by missing two, but with that being said I wanted to be sure I buried this one, for sure."
