10,000 miles from home. Atlanta United Goalkeeper Coach Liam Curran has traveled around the world for the beautiful game.

Curran started playing with his dad in Australia when he was a young lad . His dad both played and coached, so he was around the game often. As Curran started out, he played several positions on the field. A few years later when he was 12 years-old, he found his place on the pitch with a pair of gloves.

“One day, our keeper never showed up, so the coach asked if anyone was up for going in goal,” Curran shared.
