Christian Mafla finally made his first 90-minute performance for the New England Revolution. The road to get here was a long one.
When New England acquired Mafla from Atletico Nacional, it seemed like he was going to be the starting left back. Then the Columbian got injured and Revolution fans were left wondering when they would ever see him play.
The left back admitted that his injuries left him frustrated, but he had some great support from his teammates and coaches.
Mafla said, Yeah, honestly it was difficult because I came with high aspirations to play a lot and be healthy from the beginning.
