Dan Gargan reflects on a wild week that ended in MLS Cup glory

CARSON, Calif. -- It was an emotional week for Dan Gargan.


Not only did the defender win his first ever MLS Cup and help marshall the LA Galaxy defense to a victory, but he had his first child on Wednesday. Following the MLS Cup victory, Gargan, who was the final player signed during preseason, reflected on his wild week.


"It’s been an incredible year. I haven’t quite processed it all yet, it’s a beautiful thing. I’ve had an amazing week," said Gargan. "My wife gave birth to our first child, a girl, on Wednesday afternoon and I think I’ve slept a total of seven hours since then. That’s not an exaggeration. I can’t imagine it’s going to add to that total tonight, but we’re going to re-evaluate that tomorrow."
