REAL SALT LAKE 3, CHIVAS USA 3


REAL SALT LAKE HEAD COACH JOHN ELLINGER

On the results of the last two games:

"It's a shame we don't have three points to show for the goals that we scored today. We should have four points, at least, from the last two games."


On giving up late goals:

"We're not going to get over the hump until we find ways to get points at the end of the game, instead of finding ways to give away points at the end."


REAL SALT LAKE DEFENDER NIK BESAGNO

On tonight's result:

"We work hard, we work hard for 90 minutes and it's just that one second when we lose concentration that it costs us the game. It's frustrating we have to do better. Whether it's a tie, lose, or a win giving up a goal at the end of the game is upsetting."


REAL SALT LAKE MIDFIELDER MEHDI BALLOUCHY

On the team's offensive production:

"Offensively we were very dangerous. One of the most dangerous games we've played, we clicked very well as a team.


On giving up the late goal:

"Maybe it is fatigue, I'm not sure. We've been playing a lot of games. It's tough mentally and it's tough on the players."


CHIVAS USA FORWARD PACO PALENCIA

On team effort:

"I think that the effort was there, the game was evenly played. Both teams had deficiencies when passing the ball but in the end I think we were compensated for our effort."
