IAN AYRE - CEO

On the feeling of Nashville SC clinching a playoff berth“Yeah it’s been incredible really. I think we’ve been on this incredible journey in 2020, I’ve said before that its felt like every time we’ve gotten up, we’ve gotten knocked back down, but feels like since we’ve came back in the restart we’ve really started to build both momentum and obviously some level of success. To be undefeated at home since the restart and to continue to make huge progress on the stadium, lots of positives in a very difficult year. Finding out last night, watching those other games play out, that qualifies us for playoffs is fantastic. Still a lot of work to do, you know we have three games in the regular season that will determine where we play in the playoffs. Whether we play in the play-in [round] or whether we go straight to it. It’s very much in our hand particularly with the next two games against Chicago Fire FC and Dallas FC. We will see where we are, but hugely proud of everybody on and off the field. We’ve not made the most noise, we’ve not made the biggest splash, we’ve not been perhaps the sexiest game in town every time but we’ve methodically gone about our work on and off the field. I think finally some people are starting to realize that we’ve quietly got there, but we got there and were difficult to play against and difficult to break down. We go into a very small group of teams that have qualified for playoffs in their first year and I think that a pretty impressive group to be a part of when you look at who’s done that previously. I think in the last 22-years I saw a statistic that the four teams that had done it in that period all went on to win the competition in two years. It’s a good group to be around. Great company to

be keeping and as I say, hugely proud."

GARY SMITH - Head Coach

On his reactions to yesterday’s news of clinching a playoff berth and preparation for Saturday “Well I couldn’t be more excited of course for everyone involved at the club, I think its times like these that it’s not just about the team of course. Although the players are for sure the ones that have to go and get the work done on the field and add the points to the board. They will always be regarded as the most important people at the club, but I think for everyone involved it’s a great achievement, it’s a terrific opportunity that we have moving forward. To find ourselves in the post-season with three games to go, certainly gives myself and the players food for thought as we go into these final three games and what position we can finally end up in. Certainly, a historical moment for the club and certainly one I can hopefully see many more times over."

On if the results from the team have surprised you or if you knew this team could make the playoffs “The signs were there in the early part of the season and in preseason that we had a terrific group of players. We were trying to mold that into a team that could be competitive win games and get us to this point to the post-season. It’s always something you have to live and work for those experiences and let’s not forget the first two games that we played in the league; we didn’t earn a point. I do think there were some pivotal moments in our season that have now created what we see. I think the first one was that we spent the first two months there were a lot of people who were brooding the way those results went. I know that the

guys had put in a tremendous amount of work into preparing for Orlando [MLS is Back Tournament] which didn’t take place for us. I think there have been some emotional moments that have morphed inside of everyone that has given us more of an incentive than when the season actually started for us. The run that we’ve been on, the points that we’ve gathered in this second phase of the season has been fantastic and I think we’re starting to see some real qualities in the group that we not have done before because we’re now confident.”

DAX MCCARTY- Captain / Midfielder

On his reactions to yesterday’s news of clinching a playoff berth and preparation for Saturday“Yeah it was a lot of score board watching. Obviously, just to echo what Gary [Smith] said, extremely happy, extremely proud of the club in this very unique season with everything that we have been able to accomplish. I think getting into the playoffs is something that we should all be very proud of, but I enjoyed it for about two hours and then I went to bed and I woke up even more motivated than ever to try to continue this vain of form that we are in. I think as an expansion team it should certainly be recognized and celebrated a little bit that we were able to qualify for the post-season, but for me that’s the bare minimum expectation that I have for our club and for all the pieces that we have at this club to be able to achieve. Now is when we get into the fun part of the season, the fun part of the season is when the games take on greater importance and players really get to show their worth. So, really proud of everyone at the club and just looking forward to finishing out the season strong and seeing what happens in the playoffs."

match Notes

Designed by Chicago-based artist Dwight White, Chicago Fire FC’s Black Lives Matter patch is a sign of solidarity with the Black community’s continued push for equality. The design, worn on the captain’s armband by Francisco Calvo for all three matches at the MLS Is Back Tournament and the first three matches of phase one of the MLS continuation of play, emphasizes the themes and energy that White views as central to the ongoing conversations.
