My Self Introduction

Hello Hivers, Happy New Year to everyone, I wish us the best in 2022🎉. I'm delighted to write my introductory post this new year.
My name is dazzy, I'm a professional football player. I was born and raised in Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria, but I live in Lagos state, were I'm currently running my professional football career. I play for Dino Football Club, I joined the club 3 years ago from my former club Osundo FC in Uyo. I've been playing football since a little boy and now I'm eighteen years old. I play comfortably with both foot as an attacking midfield or winger and my football Idol is the Brazilian, Neymar Jnr of Paris Saint Germain in French Seria A. I have two younger siblings and two elder siblings. Mum and Dad always advising and praying that I'll be favoured with a much better career deal soon.
I started last year 2021 on a high note career wise and followed up with a couple of good and quality performances and less injury concerns. I've tried school severally, but I had no choice than to stick to the game after my high school years which I'll still further soon.

Quite frankly, it beats my imagination to know that such a legit place exist and it's unironically the best platforms I've seen in a long while.

My Interest And Hobbies
Football is my food, it is my drink and it's my medication. Without football nothing really makes sense to me. I'm not a fan of any football club, but I support all round good tactical and technical game.I've always had my ups and downs career wise, couple of long term injuries and failed trials not because I wasn't qualified, but sometimes there has to be an extra extra push,but in all this I always bounce back stronger. That's life for me, I take it the way it comes, till I have my chance. I'm always confident that I'm capable of stepping up my game and general contributions, then staying at the top of the game as I've been learning and improving everyday since I was younger.

Always getting massive supports and love from my teammates and manager, I love the player I'm growing up to become. I discovered myself from street soccer and the fact remains that street soccer is tough, rough and more aggressive, but less tactical compared to standard football with twenty-two infield players and three officials.
In street football, it's less rules, might be five or six players aside, not necessarily standard number because it's sometimes played on a smaller street space which might not be grass surfaced. Street soccer is more of individuality play and less team work. You have to take quick decision while with the ball because sometimes there's no referee officiating the match.
I play for the U18 team, but my coach features me alongside the senior players occasionally.
Compared to street football, Club football is calculative, you play to the coaches instructions and tactics practiced on the training ground. Understanding your teammates ability and capability is an added advantage and luckily for me, I have a wonderful coach who's always active, brave and willing to expose his young talents, taking us on trial and registering for competitions outside the state and country.

Challenges:
As a young baller I'm faced with challenges of having to take bully from opponents who are older and stronger..
But with pace, skills, stamina I can always take advantage and sometimes win the team a penalty or freekick.I spend alot of time on the streets playing football at different spots and location..

My hobbies include;
✓ Exercising; Saturdays are for road workout when I'm home, morning drilling when I'm back to my team in Lagos. I try to visit sport facilities in any location, I hit the gymnasium to lift weight and exercise to keep fit.

✓ Juggling the ball; I catch fun juggling the ball and trying new stunts.

✓ PlayStation game; I spend a lot of time with my PlayStation like almost everyday, I like the fun that comes with it and learn alot from PlayStation football game.

✓ Watching TV; Apart from football, I enjoy watching wrestling and other channels of interest with friends.

✓ I go shopping

✓ I hang out with teammates and colleague at bar, poolside, stadium, etc.

✓I spend time on my phone exploring social networks like Instagram and Twitter.

Favourite players:
I learn and benefit alot from experience and heroic players like Luiz Adriano, Michael Ballack, Kaka, Ronaldinho, C.Ronaldo, Messi, Ronaldo,Didier Drogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

My favourite music artists are the likes of Ed Sheeran, Lila Ike, Migos, Future, WizKid, Bruno Mars, Sarkordie, Koffee, Burna Boy, Popcaan, Justine Bieber.

I can't dance really, I think the only time I dance is when I'm on the pitch with the ball dribbling an opponent.
I've participated in school alumni competitions, governor's cup, chairman's cup, Interstate tournament and alot more.
