Video: Matt Taylor Introduces Himself With a Bang



You may have seen that recent post over at The Original Winger about former Chivas USA and K.C. Wizards forward Matt Taylor signing with German second division side TuS Koblenz recently. Even more recently, Taylor himself wrote a lengthy & insightful post over there about how he came to end up amongst the Germans and what it took to get him there.

Signed 3 days before the season commenced, dude didn't waste anytime in letting the locals know what he's about and scored a cracker from outside the 18 yard box. Good on him for making an impression early. If you are one of TOR's approximately 13 readers in the Rhineland and you see him on the straße, buy his ass a sausage and a beer for me please.

Last Sunday, he scored 3(!!) times in our most important game of the saison. Matt, you're a hero in Koblenz, so glad to have you in our team!!!!

Kaiserslautern (FCK) is our biggest rival, but we never won 5:0against them! Thanks Matt, you're a great guy and a fantastic player. I hope you enjoy your stay at koblenz, I'm sure Koblenz does :-)
