Transcript

00:00I didn't have any expectation that I would end up in a final, having Tomas on our team and play up against Lionel Messi.

00:06It's a final for the MLS Cup, but if it's with these big, big players and big names in the soccer world,

00:14then it's a little bit more exciting for more people in the world.

00:17First of all, it's really nice that he has come to the Liga of the United States,

00:26and the repercussions that that means for Vancouver.

00:32And that, well, that we can win this final, and we can fight again.

00:37The nice thing about it is not only playing against the greatest players that played our game,

00:43and still playing our game, it's more that, I think, when you have a pairing like this,

00:49more people are watching, and if more people are watching, the value also for you as a player,

00:55as an individual, also for your team and also for your franchise is way bigger.

01:00In the end, Leo has not been used to the extraordinary players,

01:09because he's an extraordinary player, and he's one that we'll never see, or at least see what I believe.

01:15You hear it a lot here, oh, you're going to a retirement league.

01:19He just won the World Cup, and arguably the best player on his team leading Argentina through that World Cup.

01:25So, it was fantastic to see him come in and put this league on his back as well,

01:29and help support it and build it up.

01:34He's a player that I've had to face for many years,

01:40both in the selecciones and clubs.

01:43He's a player who, obviously, is one of the best of his generation,

01:48a champion of the world, has won everything with Bayern.

01:52Of course, he knows that this is not Bayern Munich, but he wants to affect whatever he could affect positively when he came in.

01:59A couple of times, you know, people also laugh of his jokes.

02:04Robert Lewangolski.

02:06And then maybe one or two times also because they're funny, yeah.

02:10You've been very successful playing against Messi throughout your career.

02:14With my teams, yes.

02:15Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:16Never played one-on-one.

02:18I know about my games against Messi, but I also lost against him.

02:22And it's not about Messi against Thomas Müller, it's Miami against the Whitecaps.

02:28It's a nice thing to talk about, and I hope we can continue to talk about it Saturday after the game.
