2016 USL Regular Season
RGV FC Stadium – Edinburg, Texas
LA GALAXY II CAPTAIN AND FORWARD JACK MCBEAN
On how it feels to get the first road win of the season:
It feels really good to get our first road win of the year, especially in such a tough environment and tough place to play. The weather was rough and windy. We had some things not go our way, so to get a 2-0 win and keep a clean sheet is very good.
On what the team did differently to close out the game:
We worked on it all week in training. At the end of training we did 11 v. 11 and pretended like we're up a goal with 10-15 minutes left to go. We just really buckled down, worked hard, got in our shape and closed the game out.
On the team's busy week ahead:
We've got a busy week coming up. We're playing two really good teams that we know a little bit about from the past couple of years. They're good and the games are always competitive so we're looking forward to it and we're ready.
LA GALAXY II DEFENDER LEE NISHANIAN
On how it feels to get the first road win of the season:
It feels goods especially since the last few games we feel we've left some points on the table. But it was a big win, especially away from home. It was hot, tough conditions. But it was a good team win.
On what the team did differently to close out the game and get all three points:
It was just the mentality and attention to detail. I think the games before we had been playing well defensively. It was just a play here or play there...so just dialed in top to bottom. The subs came in and really helped us out with fresh legs and were big time. So just the mentality.
On the team's busy week ahead: It's going to be a tough week but we're up for it. We're expecting three points from each game so we're just looking to get back to LA and recover. Shout out to my boys on the team.
