Post-game comments from head coach Wilfried Nancy, Samuel Piette and Kamal Miller are available here.
WILFRIED NANCY
“Bravo to the guys tonight. They were very good. Especially defensively. All we were missing was a win. We should have won tonight. The performance represents what we wanted to do to honour Jason. My team is capable of playing very high- level matches. When you see that the opponent has no shots on net, you appreciate our performance even more.”
SAMUEL PIETTE
“The way to honour Jason isn’t by winning. We don’t have to win at all costs. Its more about having the same mentality that he had on the pitch. I think the guys did that today. I’m happy with our effort. I think there were a lot of positives in the game. Unfortunately, we couldn’t score but I’m sure Jason is looking down and proud of what we did today.”
KAMAL MILLER
“A victory would have been massive tonight. We put in such a good shift. I think that was our best defensive effort as a team this season. Mason, Romell, Djordje putting in slide tackles… It was good to see. The three points would have been great, especially against the defending champions. The crowd was amazing tonight as well.”
