Sporting KC's Matt Besler dishes on captaincy, playoff losses on SKCTV

Matt Besler doesn’t take his responsibilities as Sporting Kansas City captain lightly.


The US international defender recently sat down with SKCTV’s Nate Bukaty for an extended interview about life at his hometown club, and made it totally clear that he feels the full weight of the captain’s armband.


“When the team loses, I feel like it’s my fault,” Besler said.


The full interview, which aired before Sporting’s 2-1 win against Vancouver on March 12, is worth a watch, with Besler dishing on SKC’s consecutive early playoff exits, the offseason addition of longtime rival Brad Davis and much, much more. Check it out above.
