Mike Claiborne talks with St. Louis CITY SC Sporting Director Lutz Pfannenstiel about the team's dominant home opener, where they registered 18 shots but settled for a 0-0 draw. Pfannenstiel discusses key offseason additions like Marcel Hartel, Cedric Teuchert, and Simon Becher. He explains that Teuchert had to travel to Germany to collect his green card and just returned yesterday, making it less than ideal for him to play. Lutz also highlights the importance of team character, praises the energy from the 22,000 fans at CITYPARK, and shares his thoughts on aligning MLS with the FIFA calendar. Looking ahead, he previews the challenges of upcoming games against San Diego and LA Galaxy.
