Philly Soccer Show: Union Midfielder Michael Farfan

CHESTER, Pa. (CBS) - A rookie sensation stops by the KYW Philly Soccer Show.

Philadelphia Union midfielder Michael Farfan sits down with KYW's Greg Orlandini and Philly Soccer Page write Eli Pearlman-Storch. The second-round draft pick, who saw spotty playing time earlier in the year, is now carving out a regular spot on the right side of the midfield.

In part one, Farfan talks about how he is dealing with the increase in playing time as the Union make a push for the playoffs.  He also reflects on what it's like play on the team with his identical twin, Union defender Gabriel Farfan.
