The ultimate historical significance of the Leagues Cup won't be known for years, but the Crew says it is respecting the challenge at hand.
Crew coach Wilfried Nancy and forward Christian Ramirez talk Leagues Cup and more in this July 22, 2023 press conference.Wilfried Nancy passed the question to one of his star players like it was a goalmouth tap-in.
“We want to compete and we want to put our best foot forward and represent the club in the right way,” he said when Nancy deferred the first question in a joint press conference to him. “I think it’s a great opportunity for us to showcase in this style of format, which goes pretty fast.” “Now that we don’t have a league game for the time being, it’s a great opportunity for us to see what we can do in this,” he said. “In any tournament, the first game’s always the toughest one because all the pressure’s on it and all the expectations for that first game. Being that it’s only two games, you win one game and you’re almost guaranteed into the next round.”
