On the latest episode of USL All Access, Mike Watts and Joe Malfa, filling in for Devon Kerr, welcome New Mexico United midfielder Cristian Nava to the show to discuss how he restarted his career after two ACL surgeries, the importance of his mother throughout his rehab period and original interest in soccer, and where New Mexico stands as the race for the playoffs heats up.
 
Watts and Malfa also discuss recent signings in the USL, the complicated playoff picture as well as the battle for the Players’ Shield, Portland Hearts of Pine’s new stadium announcement, and the high-scoring instant classic that took place between Louisville City FC and the Tampa Bay Rowdies. #usl #uslonyoutube #soccerliveshere
