Thomas Müller didn’t feel ready to take the captain’s armband for Vancouver Whitecaps FC, but lived up to the task in just his second MLS game, scoring the 3–2 winning goal in the 14th minute of second-half stoppage time vs. St. Louis CITY SC.
“I was not sure if I should take the armband right away. After one week is maybe not the best idea, but I’m leading anyway. I don’t need a captain’s band to do that,” said Müller. “The team pushed me...but in the end, it’s not a big deal, but it’s a little bit of an honor.”
