"I thought the strikers did a good job in terms of movement and put Kansas City under a lot of pressure," Head Coach Tom McIntosh said. "We created good chances, 23 shots with 16 on goal, and we needed to do that. Malik was tremendous tonight, he pressed well and moved well, and Thomas had a goal and an assist. When Thomas and Taka came into the game they raised the energy level and they made a tremendous impact. We also did a good job with set pieces, so overall I'm pleased with the group."
