Max Arfsten's journey to the United States Men's National Team has been anything but conventional... Passed over by his MLS Next Pro club before getting a chance with the Columbus Crew, he transformed doubt into determination, emerging as one of the USMNT's most trusted players in 2025 and earning recognition as a U.S. Soccer Player of the Year finalist. Now, with the 2026 FIFA World Cup coming to American soil, Arfsten stands on the brink of the ultimate dream: representing his country on football's biggest stage. This is the story of resilience, belief, and a player proving that the path less traveled can still lead to the top. 📺 Watch every match on Apple TV: http://apple.co/MLS The 🐐 plays here: https://www.mlssoccer.com/messi/ ➡️ Subscribe Now:    / mls   ➡️ Follow us on: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mls?lang=en Instagram:   / mls   Twitter:   / mls   Like us on Facebook:   / mls   ➡️ Para Español: YouTube Español:    / @mls-español   Instagram:   / mlses   Twitter:   / mlses   Facebook: facebook.com/espanol.mls For more information about MLS, go to the league's official website: http://www.MLSsoccer.com, en español http://www.MLSes.com #mls #highlights #goals
