Matt Besler is the pride and joy of Kansas City soccer. Born and raised in KC, Matt takes us on his amazing journey from a local club & high school player, to Notre Dame player of the year, to the Kansas City Wizards (now Sporting KC) first round SuperDraft pick and a defender for the United States Men's National Team in the 2014 World Cup.

Matt talks family, sharing the incredible story of scoring his one and only international goal just hours after welcoming his first-born daughter. He also talks friendship, and you’ll love hearing where he and Graham Zusi first became roommates after signing with the Kansas City Wizards.
