LA Galaxy 2, Minnesota 2 ^
Q. Dejan, I know you've been nursing an injury and I know you have not been getting all the playing time that you wanted to and in this game you come in off the bench, and you're able to impact this game. What did you see in the goal and how are you feeling physically?
DEJAN JOVELJIC: I mean, first of all, I want to say that we should have won this game. In the first half, actually, I thought it's going to be impossible to win here because we could not create anything. But in the second half, game just opens up and we had everything, 2-1 for us, and again corner kick and we couldn't manage the numbers and they scored, 2-2.
On 2-2, I had very, very good chance, and I had open first post and I should have have adjust. I check it again and I should have scored that ball a hundred percent. Those balls, I score ten out of ten. But, okay, after 1-0 down, one point is okay. I don't want to say that I'm happy but let's go for the next one.
Q. What have you noticed during this road trip? It's the first time you guys are playing mid week. Maybe some heavy legs throughout that?
Yeah, yeah, of course, because we didn't -- we played every seven days. Now we play every three days. So yeah, I can say it's like that. But that's not important when you have 2-1. You need to close the game. I don't know how but somehow you need to close the game and we are going to work on that and hopefully we are going to close more and more games.
Q. How are you feeling physically?
Obviously I didn't play ten days and I played almost 17 minutes against real Salt Lake. I was feeling very good that game. The coaches made the decision that for me it's better to play the game from the bench, and I feel every day better and better and hopefully after fewer games I'm going to be back.
Q. You scored six goals last year and you got seven this season. Is your confidence higher than now compared to last year or how are you feeling just this season overall?
I mean, my confidence is always high. But it's even better when we create a lot of chances when we play good and when I score. So this season is different story. We are creating more and I'm scoring more. It's simple as that.
Q. On the goal, it seemed like that ball took an awkward bounce before it got to you. Could you walk us through that moment there?
I mean, a lot of people are going to say that the goals I'm scoring are easy, so first of all, it's not easy to be in that position. Secondly, it's not easy to score. Even though it looks so easy. So it bounced weird, but I managed to hit the ball well and to score that. But the second ball maybe was even easier and I said already, I should have gone left side -- I had open position from the goalkeeper was not good but he got lucky.
Of course can I add that I'm so happy because I played my 100th game here and the fun fact is that I play my first game here and now it's the 100th and yeah, I'm going to go hunting.
