I really relish that kind of challenge. I m more of an interior lineman, like a football player. That s my mentality. While soccer players in general have a reputation for intensity, the fire in Clark s belly is stoked high and hot, fulltime. A lot of people turn it on and off, Lapper continues.
Some people come to play for the big games or only if there s a big crowd.
They don t have the same intensity if there are three people in the stands compared to 3,000. That must be some intensity, because Clark hardly ever takes a rest. He s logged more minutes in playoff matches than any other Crew member. He is also Mr. Clutch. As a defender, Clark doesn t get many looks at the goal, but when he does, watch out.
