"What we said is that we show up every day and make sure we have a no-regret mentality. We make sure to do everything possible to give us the best chance of winning games. When you do that over and over, you have chances to do this. Now the challenge is how you maintain that and progress it."
"That was a good St. Louis team. You could see they were well-coached and how much they had changed from last year. We went against a team that we knew would challenge us, so it was about what mentality we had in our preparation."
San Diego FC has achieved a perfect start to the 2026 MLS season with two consecutive wins, including a 2-0 victory over St. Louis City SC. Manager Mikey Varas attributes the team's success to adopting a 'no-regret' mentality that emphasizes daily commitment and thorough preparation. After finishing atop the Western Conference in their debut season and reaching the Conference final before losing to Vancouver Whitecaps, San Diego is positioned as a favorite for the MLS Cup this year. Varas emphasizes that maintaining and progressing this mentality is crucial for sustained success. The team faces winless Sporting Kansas City next, aiming to extend their unbeaten record.
