Christian Lattanzio addresses the media after Charlotte FC’s 1-2 away loss against New England Revolution.
Result given everything that was at Stake Yeah yeah disappointed result I think uh But we will never will never give up I Think this is the season our season so Far the games that we deserve to win we Drew and the game that at the very least We deserve a draw like today we lose Uh I would like Uh to change that but I am very proud of The way the boys play I'm very proud of The football that we show tonight and I Don't think that we just have to to lose This game we hit the framework with Caro We had another big chance with Scott we Uh Created a few chances they did and we Know that the the there is a quality Team Um but I don't think that uh Uh 1.0 okay we will I would have liked To Come Away with a point because I Think this is what we deserved but we Have four more games that we need to uh Approach to go and win the next four So the swing from going Tad to then Giving up a goal in a matter of a minute Can you pinpoint You know how that happens so quickly how Did that been so they they got a corner And then from that corner We were not uh we were not uh quick to Recognize the situation and it was a Good ball and then we know that uh
Romney and they are really good in those In those uh situations is 85 36 minutes I think he plays a little bit tired and We should we should defend that Situation a little bit better but we Tried that and uh And it was a vital moment because I Think that we were we could have got the Momentum on the game and to concede uh In that moment it was very disappointing I mean in the moment I thought well They've got kind of their three Center-back defense but the whole team's Back there are defending the corner so I Mean you had your guys he just You know didn't didn't have somebody Where they needed to be I guess yeah Yeah as the ball was moved we were not Quick to organize something is uh this Is a situation that we normally That you work a lot uh But uh yeah it is we were not able to to Defend as good as we would have liked to Defend in that moment Thanks Christian okay thank you Carol uh I'll go over to Nick Hi Christian Um so what are your thoughts about the The first half versus the second half of Play On on YouTube I think uh we had uh we're The good first half we had the Um Good chances uh maybe the best chances I
Thought that we were Probably the better team in the first Half second half they made fewer Adjustments and we have to make Adjustment as well Um The main difference is that they found That goal at the moment that we were About to change something Uh they play the that situation with a Lot of color of quality was a good ball And a good finish from back And then after we were chasing the Result and that's I decided to to change Our formation to put another Striker And uh and we managed to again to create Chance and then to score the The Equalizer and I think as the game Progressed we were They were making adjustment that we were Making adjustments so I don't think that They had that there was a lot of Difference between the two teams not at All I think and uh you know the Difference sometimes it was created by Gill as we know that he can pop up in a Little bit everywhere and he can protect The ball and he can found they can find This Uh switch very accurate very precise on The opposite side it's very difficult For him to stop him because if you go Too much inside then he can dribble Inside you so he's uh
Is one of the best players in the league And we know that he can find the Situation uh diff let's say dangerous Play in every moment I thought that Andrew when he was uh confronting him he Did a very good job for us and I was Very happy with Andrew performance Tonight So let me ask a kind of a follow-up on That so like you said they were they Were making changes and then you were Making changes on top of that and so you Made Personnel changes to with your subs Using all five Subs what was your what Is your kind of intention with with Those particular personnel and what were You hoping to do differently But the the idea behind that was that Uh I wanted to have a player like Scott Between the lines because I thought that We were occupying and sometimes we were Not occupying in well Those pockets and then I saw that brecht And Mackenzie they look a little bit Tired to me And we needed we need the Molex given That they've swapped Jones from the left And uh they put poster on the right And then after uh I wanted to have more Legs on the left hand side with Kelvin To go 1v1 against Polster and to put Another Center forward that would occupy Them
When we were trying to get an equalizer Did you consider moving gains over to The left when they switched stones to The same side So he could be on poster No because uh also we need the legs on The I mean Nick I don't want to yeah okay Fine yeah okay and then one last Question so moving forward you have a Quick game turn around with Wednesday And then a Saturday uh back to back at It again what do you what do you focus On We focus on uh on playing a strong game To be ready mentally and physically for The next game against Toronto home we Want to give a great performance to the To the fans And we want to keep believing because uh Is still is still we have to approach Every game to try to win every game like We did tonight we wanted to win the game Tonight And we will not change our mentality Will not uh we just have to make sure That we use the day to recover and to be Ready for the next challenge but Mentally we are ready we want to give we Want to give our best going to God Fighting until the end Thank you Okay all right that was any more hands So thank you Christian wound it there
Okay thank you
