Montreal 0, Chicago Fire FC 0
Q. How are you feeling? The Internet is going crazy about this. You had four massive saves and it was an impressive effort.
CHRIS BRADY: Yeah, it's kind of unfortunate, we weren't able to get all three points. But then again a point on the road isn't too bad, as long as we're accumulating points along the way, I think we are putting ourselves in a really good spot for the playoffs.
But yeah, me personally, it's not really a preferred situation you want to be in where guys are kind of getting a little tired and dropping back and just letting the pressure come to them. As a goalkeeper, that's not really preferred, but I get it. A lot of running throughout the game and situations like that happen, and that's what we train.
So I think you saw tonight just kind of a display of just different game situations we haven't really been put in throughout what's been the season, and yeah, it's just those are kind of like split-second moments where I happen to make a save or maybe a defender happens to make a block.
But it does happen to get pretty overwhelming and mind-boggling when those start to pile up, especially at the end of a game.
Q. Clean sheet after the last couple games, how they have been going for the back line, how much does that help you guys mentally going into this final stretch?
CHRIS BRADY: It's huge. One of the things we discussed this week was just getting that confidence back, and just kind of to solidify that back line. Just returning to old ways, if you will. So yeah, that's something we worked on quite a bit throughout this last week was just maintaining a solid, compact unit anywhere on the field just as a team, and I think we showed that very well tonight and that's why we got the shutout.
But yeah, it's massive for our confidence.
Q. The crowd was pretty awesome behind the goal when you made the saves. How was that?
CHRIS BRADY: Yeah, the stadium actually got a lot louder than I thought it would have. It's something we are used to. We've played in massive stadiums before with big crowds. We have been able to tune up the noise pretty well and just kind of pumps you up, if you make save after save in front of a crowd like that, it's exhilarating.
Q. The most important question you're going to be asked all year: EA FC ratings come out, you're 65 overall in the new game. Curious how you're feeling, especially after a performance like tonight about the way you're being favored as a young person in that game.
CHRIS BRADY: Yeah, unfortunately I don't play FIFA I'm more of a Rocket League, Call of Duty guy. Yeah, I'm not sure the rankings, how they rank, what's good, what's bad. But I don't know, 65 doesn't sound too good.
But still, I'm just happy that I guess that I get to be in a video game.
