Brian Schmetzer was keen to turn attention away from the post-match brawl at the conclusion of the Leagues Cup

Transcript

00:00I asked Machirano about the brawl at the end of the game.

00:04He said that he was too away from it,

00:06but that maybe sometimes action is because of reactions.

00:10There's tape of Busquets, you know, he didn't open it in the face.

00:14Suarez is spitting on a staff member.

00:15What are your statements on that regard?

00:17My statement is, unfortunately,

00:20that is going to take some of the attention away

00:24from what was a great sounder performance.

00:27So I can take that as a compliment that their players were frustrated

00:33and frustrations led to some things that shouldn't happen on the field.

00:38That shouldn't be the story.

00:43I'm going to shut that down.

00:45Afterwards, I had a quiet moment with Messi on the field

00:48and I said, lo siento, and, you know, we talked

00:53and we tried to push it aside.

00:55Javier Machirano is a great coach.

00:57Before the game, on the walkout,

01:00he was very complimentary of our team and I appreciated that.

01:04David Beckham, to his credit,

01:06was waiting for everybody in the tunnel

01:08for our players to shake their hands.

01:12And that is class through and through.

01:14And those are people that have been at the highest levels of our sport

01:17giving our team compliments.

01:21And that's the story.

01:22That's your priority.

01:27Well, yes, I do.
