We fought back. What I told the team was that these results last year were better. If we were a little bit lucky we would have won the game. This seems like a loss. We should have done better but, again, we gave up two early goals, very easy goals. Then we put together an incredible effort to come back. At the end we wanted to win the game. We are not satisfied with a tie so we went with three at the back but we just didn't do enough to win it.
More Quotes from Fernando Clavijo:
That was our first (MLS) game in 17 days, but little by little, things are coming together. We have minimized our mistakes. It has been a roller coaster, but I'm giving credit to whoever is stepping in.Fernando Clavijo
We didn't put enough pressure on the crosses. We could never control it. We let them have it too easy. Ching had one of the best games I've ever seen him play. He is an outstanding young player who has been in and out of the national team. We weren't prepared for that kind of speed.

We make some individual mistakes that cost us the game, but I'm looking forward to playing the Galaxy again, 11-v-11, without any red cards, with no penalties. We get the red card and that changes the game. It was crucial.

I want it. This team has really not won many things, and I think an opportunity to win it is something we need to concentrate on.

His value is never going to be higher. We got him here for nothing and now get a first-round draft pick, perhaps a second, and Martins.

I think we played hard. We didn't come out with the points. When you play D.C. you know it is going to be hard. It was hard when we played them at home. We beat them. We knew it was going to be hard and took a really good free kick to open up the goals.
