“We talked about it about a week ago and we agreed that this was the game where I had to rest, regardless of what happened in the game with Nashville,” Martino said.

“I think we deserved to win the game, in the long run we deserved to win it. And what I believe and worry about is that we are a team that does not defend hard in the moments it has to defend, whether in moving ball or in still ball,” the coach concluded. .
