Schwarz believes that pressure can enhance performance, stating, "To feel the pressure as a player and head coach is good. We need the pressure to bring our best performance and level." This reflects his philosophy that facing high stakes can catalyze the team's potential, especially in a historical derby against NYCFC in the semifinals.
Cushing emphasizes focusing on the present, saying, "The whole focus is hosting a playoff semifinal at home. We're really proud that we've done everything to get to this opportunity, but there are many more challenges ahead, and we cannot look further than the first 10 minutes of the game." This highlights his strategic approach to maintaining focus on immediate challenges.
