What They're Saying
FC Dallas manager Oscar Pareja (via MLS): "We've been concerned about Mauro [Diaz] lasting the 90 minutes and getting him to the end of games, and I thought that the last 15 minutes for Mauro were great and unbelievable."
New York Red Bulls manager Jesse Marsch: "It's not an easy time for us right now, but I think that it's an important moment for him [center-back Matt Miazga]. He's Established himself here, he's become a real pro and now he gets to go on the world stage and against a bunch of players his age, put himself to the test against some of the best in the world."
The In-Form Player
Diaz solidifies FC Dallas' attack when healthy. In six appearances, the 24-year-old has two goals, three assists and an average of 1.7 key passes.
