Marco Roy has proven himself more than worthy of the slogan welcome home Marco given to him by LA Galaxy in his very first match in the United States with his new team the German midfielder immediately demonstrated the class of someone who once dominated European football Roy was brought on when LA Galaxy was struggling against Atlanta United even after one of his teammates missed a penalty but in just 28 minutes on the pitch the 35-year-old star left a strong mark and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the one who changed the game the first highlight came in the 76th minute when Royce perfectly set up a pass for former Barcelona Prodigy Ricky PG who curled a precise shot from outside the box leaving the Atlanta United goalkeeper with no chance the Embrace PG gave his senior afterward also showed just how much the LA Galaxy players respect Marco Roy then in the 84th minute the German midfielder showed his sharpness in front of goal by positioning himself perfectly to receive a cross from the right wing after two quick shots he officially got his name on the score sheet one goal and one assist in his first match for his new team what could be better and that's not all in just 28 minutes on the field Marco Roy made 31 out of 33 successful passes achieving a 94% pass completion rate created three key chances delivered two accurate long balls and won two Del clearly Roy's class remains intact it's just his physical condition that has declined slightly perhaps now he has found the right place where he can contribute at his highest level this could also be the foundation for the German midfielder to win his first national league title of his career despite Lionel Messi's inter Miami being highly regarded but who knows Glory might smile upon Marco Roy this season a little reminder in Bundesliga history only four players have reached 100 goals and 100 assists gerd Muller Thomas Muller Andreas Muller and Marco Roy the first three have all won almost every title in their careers as if by Destiny the player with the most unique name and the last to reach this Milestone Marco Roy has never won a title in his entire career either at Club level or with the national team while he didn't spend his entire career at Dortmund Royce loved and joined the black and yellows from the time he was a 7-year-old boy at the age of 15 seeking opportunities to play as a young Talent his family decided to move him away from Dortmund he returned to Dortmund in the 2012-13 season as a star reaching the Champions League final in his first season with the rbas team only to lose to Bayern Munich Roy probably never expected that setback at the age of 24 to foreshadow a career constantly turning its back on Glory he never won the Bundesliga let alone the Champions League Roy's trophy cabinet includes only two dfb call and two dfl super cup titles which is quite modest given his talent to some extent one could look at meller to see how great Roy could have been if he had joined Bayern Munich but it's okay because Roy has always been loved and respected by many fans and colleagues alike and if he could win the MLS with LA Galaxy it would certainly be a perfect ending to the career of the glass-- legged German [Applause] hey hey hey hey
