What went right in 2021:

To be completely blunt, nearly everything went right for Valentín Castellanos in 2021. The fantastic footballer we’ve all come to know as “Taty” ended his 2021 campaign in MLS as the Golden Boot winner, finishing with 19 goals scored—tied with DC United’s Ola Kamara for first place.
