00:00 I mean, it was a pretty big emotional event that was.
00:05 But I think if we're able to channel that energy
00:09 and bring that with us into Cincinnati,
00:13 I think that's going to help us out a lot.
00:15 I think the team gained a lot of confidence,
00:17 gained a lot of just belief in what we're capable of doing,
00:20 and we just need to transfer that over to Open Cup now.
00:23 I think Messi kind of recognizes what this team has been through.
00:27 Even prior to him coming here,
00:29 he's known that there's been leadership,
00:31 there's been different leaders who have stepped up,
00:33 and De'Andre has definitely served as one of our leaders throughout this season.
00:37 So for him to recognize that is huge.
00:40 It shows that he is humble, he kind of respects everyone on the team.
00:46 So for him to do that goes to show how good of a teammate he is.
