Toronto FC 4, Charlotte 0
Q. Just talk about the atmosphere.
LORENZO INSIGNE: It was a great atmosphere and I'm very happy about this debut, and I didn't expect it and I'm encouraged to celebrate with such victory.
Q. Your first club game outside of Europe in your career. What did you think of the energy and the tactical structure of the MLS in your first day of action?
LORENZO INSIGNE: So it's certainly different from what I played in Europe. But there's like a very strong energy and that's very important. It's good to be -- you need to be fit to get a result, and that is what matters.
Q. How did you feel tonight physically?
LORENZO INSIGNE: I felt a little tired but I felt good as well. It's been a long time since my last game. But the for time passes, the more good I feel on the team.
Q. Did you feel the love today?
LORENZO INSIGNE: So I was very pleased, and I didn't expect such a welcome from the fans in this first home game. It was certainly a big emotion, and I would like to return the love to the fans with my game on the field and also in the future.
Q. The great assist, how did that play sort of unfold for you?
LORENZO INSIGNE: It's like the type of action that I really hike, and what I look forward to. He was great in finalizing the action.
Q. Can you talk about how great a game it was and how great was Michael Bradley, especially the back heel kick to Bradley, and how did you feel about this first game?
LORENZO INSIGNE: I think that the first half was great. We played a great game. And there's still a long road ahead, and I like how we played, even I make any goal. But I'm here for the team to make more of the type of assists that I did, and I'm really happy with the results.
Q. There's a Cup final in three days across the country. Do you expect to play in that Cup final?
LORENZO INSIGNE: Well, I hope, so but it's going to be the coach's decision. I need to recover the energy, and I think that it was a good choice to make a substitution at the end of the first half.
I just want to recover and be ready for Tuesday.
