Portland Timbers midfielder Sebastián Blanco
On his thoughts on the game…
“I’m very calm because the team had a very good attitude, a very good effort, especially in the second half. I think we deserved more points today, but we played against 14, 15 players.”
On the difference in the second half…
“The first we didn’t play bad. But we created more opportunities. In the second half we took more risks. We played more offensive, moved the ball well and created chances. Again, we had an important mistake and they scored and it was very difficult to come back in the game.
