FC Dallas vs. FC Cincinnati: Peter Luccin post-match press conference after 1-0 loss | 6.29.24

FC Dallas dropped its second game in a row after falling 1-0 to Eastern Conference powerhouse FC Cincinnati.

FC Cincinnati entered the match with a remarkable 7-1-1 record on the road this season and added another win to their impressive road success. FC Cincinnati's only road loss came back in April when the team lost 2-1 to CF Montréal. They've gone on to win six out of six away from their home fans.

FC Dallas hadn't lost at home since mid-March when the club fell 3-1 to the Vancouver Whitecaps. A six-match unbeaten streak at home (four wins, two ties) was broken with the 1-0 loss Saturday night.

“It wasn’t a good game. We had chances where we generated something, but it was not enough to win a game at home against a strong team like FC Cincinnati. In the last 20 minutes, we pushed through with heart," FC Dallas head coach Peter Luccin said. "We had a shot hit the post, but they also had two chances; one was almost a 1v1 with the goalkeeper and they missed. Our pressure has not been what it should be, and that goes for everyone, the players, me, and the staff, too. We looked inexperienced. After three games, which have been very good, the performance of this game is not the image we should be portraying. We lost another player tonight, Liam Fraser, so we are playing a lot of young players. That is a silver lining, but we have to do a lot better. I am very disappointed about the game.”
