Soumare admits his emotions got the better of him on Saturday night when he tweeted at Jeff Crandall, a writer for the Fire's official website, “You are pretty f*** terrible at what you do” after Crandall pointed out that Soumare had a “pretty bad hand ball” in the first half of the Fire's 2-1 loss to Seattle that led to a Sounders penalty kick. Soumare deleted the tweet later that night.
“We're in a tough stretch for us, everyone knows in this club, the players, the teammates, everyone in this club knows everything I bring to the table and how passionate I am about my job,” Soumare told MLSsoccer.com after training on Monday. “I love what I do, and it was out of emotion. I was obviously pissed about the game. The way I am on the field shows you how much passion I have for the game.
"I really care about this club and this team, and sometimes I just get emotional. I am a human being and I make mistakes. You learn from it and you move on.”
