If you were brought in from a foreign country to play in MLS and you ended up spending most of your first season on the bench how would you react?
While I’m far from a professional athlete, being away from the country I call home and getting relatively no playing time wouldn’t make me feel that great.
But that’s not the case for Christian Mafla. On a bright and sunny Tuesday training session, his smile was also shining as he made his way across the practice field.
Due to injury issues, Mafla has only played in four games and racking up just over 200 minutes played along with 10 fouls conceded and a yellow card.
