Charlotte FC will start a new winning series when they travel to Ohio to play Surging Crew on Saturday night.
Charlotte (6-3-1, 19 points) lost 1-0 to the New England Revolution due to the first loss in the last four matches last four matches, but coach Dean Smith said he was optimistic about a rebound against the crew (6-1-3, 21 points).
“We had a few chances in the first half with a clear look,” Smith said about the game against New England.
Smith was more worried than more than a lack of scoring, and therefore lighter in the wallet. He and his midfielder Ashley Westwood were given fines that were not announced on Wednesday for comments after the match.
Smith said New England was offside before scoring the goal. He also said he could not overcome the physical game against the players of the authorities.
“He doesn't feel like a loss because the authorities have removed the game from us.” He said.
Charlotte star, who had two goals in eight games, was disappointed. This week, he went to social media to tell the critics “please stop cracking, especially my name”.
In contrast, the crew is ticking 4-1-0, because there was an unexpected scoring while fighting forward. Max Arfsten (eight in 52 games) and Sean Zawadzki (six in 72) won 2-1 against San Jose earthquakes last Saturday.
Their goals were not accidentally, but a result of coach Wilfried Nancy's attacking attack trying to include every player.
“The relationship between these players. We work hard on it.” He said. “This is not one, two (players), four or five or six players can understand the game at the same time. This is something we do in different ways every day.
“So I'm really happy to bring more uncertainty to the opposition because it's not just two, three, four players; more players in this game.”
