KYW’s Philly Soccer Show: Alejandro Moreno
Philadelphia Union forward Alejandro Moreno has sacrificed goal-scoring glory for deep hold-up play this year, and it’s won him fans and critics. He talks about that, what it will take for the Union’s young prospects to become stars, and the Union’s locker room culture. It’s a revealing, insightful interview with a man who thinks like a coach and has been the ultimate team player for the Union. Co-hosts Greg & Dan also talk about the big win over NY and this week’s final game at Colombus.
