"You know, we're looking at some of the data right now, just the physical data, and I think it's one of the top three for our best-ever recorded data in a game. So that just shows the commitment, the passion, the effort, everything that these guys have put into it. They deserved so much more than a loss and I'm super proud of them."
"To watch these guys perform like they did, it's massive amounts of being proud and being happy. You know, we go ahead and get ourselves in a great position away from home against a very, very tough opponent. We did enough to win the football game."
St. Louis City have managed only one win and four losses in their last five matches, including a 3-2 defeat to Vancouver after a 104th-minute penalty and a late 87th-minute loss to Chicago. The team produced high physical metrics that rank among their best, showing passion, commitment and effort despite unfavorable results. St. Louis sit 14th in the Western Conference with 21 points from 27 matches. Houston, 12th in the West on 29 points, enter with a six-match MLS winless run. New MLS arrival Thomas Muller scored his debut goal from a 104th-minute penalty, illustrating the fine margins that have punished St. Louis.
