Toronto 1, Chicago 1
Q. Hi, Kobe. Disappointing way to end the game. Seemed like I guys were really, really close to getting what would've been a valuable win. Maybe give your assessment of the team's performance on the pitch tonight, setting aside the final result? How do you think the team played?
KOBE FRANKLIN: I think it was a really gritty performance; conditions were windy and slippy pitch. So I think it was just a hard-fought game overall, and we needed to find a way to play our football at times, but as well look to kind of combat the situation we were given.
Q. Between the shootout in Vancouver, being six minutes away from the win here, getting a couple of late chances, does it feel like you guys can't seem to catch a break or get it over the line at the moment?
KOBE FRANKLIN: Yeah, I mean, I would be lying if I said it wasn't tough and definitely feels like that way sometimes, but in professional sports and football there is no time it sulk.
You got to do what you got to do and move forward. Now we have six extremely valuable points ahead of us.
Q. Kobe, I asked John this; like to get your opinion. How much of a missed opportunity was this for the club tonight?
KOBE FRANKLIN: Yeah, it was definitely -- dropping points, especially in the last ten minutes, is extremely disappointing and it's going to sting.
The turnaround is quick, and that's the whole team's focus now, is the next two games ahead of us. Very, very valuable points and kind of an all-or-nothing situation.
So I think everybody is going to be ready to shift their focus there and fight for the badge.
Q. Kobe, you touched on it. With two big games coming up what do you need to do to win these two games?
KOBE FRANKLIN: Win. Win both. Both home games, coming home after an extensive road trip. That's the word in everybody's head. Do whatever we do to win these games.
