The Challenges of Being a Backup Goalkeeper

Being a backup goalkeeper is an incredibly demanding role. I'll expect Italy flung in and just be the Super Bowl MVP when you are asked to do that. We have a great togetherness in our group and nobody looks at anybody in the locker room as unimportant just because they didn't play. Everybody respects each other and their role within the team. Every single person, their role is counted on to keep that clock ticking. You see that you do. It's been a tremendous learning experience for me.
