Quill on Open Cup loss: "This game is a poster child for what needs to improve in our sport."


Listen Later

Eric Quill did not mince or censor his words last night after a disappointing and emotional penalty kick shootout loss against the Red Bulls.

FC Dallas went ahead first on a beautiful Kamungo effort fed by Lucho Acosta and then rallied to go ahead again on a skillful bit of play as Kamungo turned and fed Lucho to make it to 2-1. The Red Bulls, though, had the star talent to turn to off the bench and found an equalizer late in regular time.

A red card given to Ramiro made life profoundly more difficult for Dallas deep in extra time. The team had to basically hold on for dear life, hoping for a penalty kick shootout to survive.

The PK shootout went pretty poorly though, with Lucho missing what should have been a routine shot. Paes found one save to give Dallas hope, but in the end, Pedrinho couldn’t deliver to keep his side in it. Tough, tough night.

Quill did more than hint that the refereeing was not good enough on the night. Wil he face a sanction or punishment? We’ll see.

Listen to his words yourself and see what you make of this team, their fight, and their future.
