Here is my gamer from Minnesota United's 1-1 draw with Mexican team Atlas FC in Saturday' international friendly at TCF Bank Stadium.

This is what midfielder Ish Jome had to say about the new additions of winger Sam Nicholson, defender Michael Boxall and forward Brandon Allen during this first week of the secondary transfer window.

"We've been lacking just some squad depth over this course of the season with injuries and international call-ups, it's been really tough," Jome said after Saturday's draw. "Today, even, when we had five guys subbing. So it's really tough, but adding those guys, I think, is going to be real key to the second half of the season. We'll have more bodies to rely on."

Sorry this is the world's shortest postmatch blog but, hey, it's a friendly.
