Portland Timbers head coach Giovanni Savarese
One the way the draw played out…
“We knew it was going to be physical. This is a very difficult place to play because they press the entire match. They are very athletic. They made the game very, very choppy and difficult. They never give up. And for us, we had to match up physically, and we did. And that was the most important part. The guys gave everything, especially in the second half. I thought we were solid in the first half, but in the second half, we gave everything we had in order to be able to at least get a point.
