…both rostered players and none roster trialists. Many players from last are in camp this season, with only 5 exceptions. Herculez Gomez and Matt Marquess are both gone from KC, Gomez is now playing in Mexico and Marquess has retired from professional soccer…
…well to bury. Ruiz also drew a penalty late in the first half, but Puebla captain Luis Miguel Noriega missed the spot kick. Herculez Gomez joined Puebla a week ago after having spent time with the Galaxy, Colorado and Kansas City. Gomez could have joined…
…would be a near perfect fit if he's still around. Since the technology to clone Davy Arnaud is still a ways off, and with Herculez Gomez now plying his trade in Mexico, shoring up the wide midfield positions will also be a priority. FCD had the look of a complete…

There might have been a little frustration but we created one or two good chances again in the second half and if one of those goes in maybe the body language and posture changes a bit … I think all along we were going for it but they killed off the game extremely well the last 15 minutes. There were goals out there for us and we just didn't convert them.—Josh Wolff, MLSnet - Major League Soccer
Overall, I thought we played well. We came in and played with a lot of heart. We created a ton of chances. On another night, I think the way we played, I think we walk out of here, not just with a tie, but a win … But I think the way we played and the chances we created, I don't think we deserved to lose. It's frustrating.—Davy Arnaud, MLSnet - Major League Soccer
He was excellent. His passing and his distribution and of the five quality chances we had in the first half, he was involved in all (of them) and he was the last pass directly on three of them … Claudio stayed a little higher which wound up giving him more space and room and they had a tough time dealing with it and he knows how to find the seams in the game.—Peter Vermes, MLSnet - Major League Soccer
I think the guys got a little impatient. I think they got a little impatient at the fact that we didn't score early enough with all those chances in the first half so it wound up being that you start getting a little antsy and you want to go get that goal and I think we still created a couple of chances in the second half but not of the quality that we did in the first half—Peter Vermes, MLSnet - Major League Soccer
Definitely in the first half we drove the game being away from home, which is a really good thing. That was a real positive for us—Peter Vermes, MLSnet - Major League Soccer
