With this team Not from where I'm sitting I am enjoying I watch the boys trying to repeat in the On onto the pitch and against the Opposition in front of our supporter so Anyway in a in an MLS game what we work On on a daily basis on a weekly basis uh Unfortunately you said that the finish In Hasn't been uh At the same quality of the building up To that point but I also know that Finishing is why you know is the most Difficult thing partly in football and That's why there's Strikers they get Paid so much money right uh no but is I Think that we had Has been enjoyable from to watch them I Think they are a team that is making You know that should make the Carolinas Proud because the guys played with Intensity and they try to create chances Uh in every game against everybody Okay thanks will uh let's go to Claudio And then we'll go to care after that Um good morning Christian Um thank you for doing this Um I'm from Nashville Total Sports uh Considering the roller coaster that Nashville has been in uh playing the Final of the League's Cup going to Atlanta and getting beat for nothing and Then tying um with Miami and the Lioness Game what national team do you expect
For the for this weekend Listen you know Nashville better than me Claudio uh I have been following them Obviously because it was the final and I Watched that I didn't watch we watch After but I didn't watch live obviously But I watched to study them against Atlanta and against Miami I always Respect the same Nashville I know the Coach the the style that he has is very Uh is very consistent in his approach Has been there for a few years he's done A very very good job So I think the principle of play that They follow has been cemented over the Years and so I I expect a strong and Solid Nashville team as usual All right thank you Claudia Cara Hey Christian I like this rapid fire Stuff Um I was just curious about how diagram Was doing Yeah I mean You say the name well and even when you Say well it's difficult to understand it But uh Yeah No break but I think that the experience That he has as a player Help them in this case because I think It just came out at the right time when He felt something rather than aggravate This injury I think he will be I think it will be
Ready [Music] Or Not Just for this one I think but for The next one we should we should be in Good shape To to start and to do You know to do well uh And to do well for us I thought it Started really well in this game and I Thought that It was a shame to see him out so soon Because he was growing into his role and Uh for a play that just arrived it was Amazing how influential it's been Already Since he came into the team But I respect I expect this from him and I'm glad that The images that he did the show just a Very very small uh So just to just to you said ready for Tomorrow right no no I wish no no yeah Okay maybe next game okay thank you yeah Great uh Kenneth Hey Carson how are you making it good Thank you Um just as we get to the bottom of the Season we've got a couple games left you Guys are just a few points out of being A playoff contention you know how's the Team and how's them around going forward Obviously Um dropping a few points here on against Orlando
Yeah it was disappointing after the Performance like that to just uh Hey who I'm buying from the game I think With the the three but uh football is Like that and if you don't take your Chances then you always live at the Mercy of a mistake And so but uh we are happy with the way We play the performance Uh was important to cement as after the The game we played against lafc And uh we need to play game by game you Know I'm I'm not looking necessarily at What position we are on at the moment I'm just looking at the how the teams Have all been how we are playing and uh We just showed that after A few criticism that we got if we got The three points against Orlando we'll Be already there within two games and we Have You know nine more to play And uh We we know that there are a lot of Points to pick up and we need to fight Again by game Awesome thank you thank you again all Right uh let's finish with Max Lorton Hey Christian uh you talked about you Talked about being at the mercy of a Mistake uh and I know that the players Are generally their harshest critics uh What kind of discussions have you had
With Christian after that that goal that Was uh conceded in the draw Listen we analyze Um The games uh Quite a lot And not just the goals that we concede Or just uh what we do the goals that we Score we analyze all the situations that Maybe We have been lucky or unlucky and uh So obviously the goal was one of them And we have two goalkeeping coaches one Actually by uh that is the designated One with Adam and then also Andy that is Another assistant that I have here Is uh has been for many years in premier League goalkeeping coach so they they Are in an ideal position to address that I think that in that situation we should Attack the ball better but The point is that uh You know the the game is always linked So the way we play offensively as an Effect of the way we play defensively And vice versa So in everybody tends to Analyze and to Uh uh you know so To give an episode all the importance But of in that case it became very Important but if we were if we had Daylight between us and them if we are Two or three goals caution like we could
Have had And that we still have to we still have To analyze and improve that situation of Course But you would have obviously less Relevance in the in the balance of the Game having said that we discussed Overly with Carl and is part of our job To analyze what we do well and what we Don't do well to trade to improve and to Move on Quickly I'm going to stick in my movie Questions since there's only five Minutes left uh More than me What movie scary scares you the most And why move uh Happens of all I don't like horror Movies so I probably would surprise you That it's not dead I think the There is a movie that scared me A lot was uh I don't know is one of the first film of Kubrick with either cell is about the Atomic Bond Uh I think he's I don't remember the name Now Uh it will do a quick search Doctor Strangelove Exactly that is because a human we can I That what scares me is that we can be The worst enemy of ourselves and so we
Can uh Become Mad and you know and wipe out ourselves So our movies I love shining but uh As a story but the the Doctor Strange Love Actually is Kevin Moss Interesting I didn't think it was I Didn't think you were going to go there Thank you very much Christian good luck This weekend thank you thank you very Much guys see you to the game I guess Yes we'll see you guys after the game With Christian press conference thank You thank you thank you
Things to Do in Charlotte, North Carolina
Events, Life, Sports, Weather, News
If you’re looking for a vibrant city where your kids will be welcome at the local park and you won’t have to worry about being a religious minority in a predominantly Protestant area, Charlotte is for you. Its affordable housing, close-knit communities and easy access to nature make it a great place to live and work. However, Charlotte is growing fast and its cost of living is rapidly rising — it’s no longer the secret low-cost gem that it once was.
You’ll still find plenty of things to do, though. This is a city that’s proud of its culture and offers a wide range of arts and entertainment options for residents to enjoy. For example, the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art showcases a collection of 20th century modernist works while the Levine Center for the Arts hosts performances by the Charlotte Symphony and North Carolina Dance Theatre. There are also a variety of theaters where you can catch an independent film or take in the latest Broadway musical.
Sports are a big deal in this city, which is home to several professional and collegiate teams. Whether you’re an avid fan of basketball, hockey or NASCAR, you’ll have no trouble finding a game to attend. But if you need a break from the commotion of stadium crowds, head about an hour outside the city to the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains or 3-4 hours east to the Atlantic beaches.
