What do you see before you tackle the ball?
Everything. The
speed, the intensity, the timing; every single thing. You are not just diving
in. You go into that clash knowing that you will get the ball. And you walk out
with the statement. This is my place. Anyone who try to create something here
need to face me.
First battle is the most
important one. It will determine who is the better?; the attackers’ skills
or your patience, intelligence and determination to stop them? First challenge
will bring you the confidence.
After winning the battle, the
satisfaction is perfect. You start to have a very great anger, but you start to
control the situation. The opponents begin to think about you. The teammate
starts to feel less worry. You are waiting for the next battle and you will
throw every single part of yourself to win this.
Keep
tackling.
