My life as a Goalkeeper

In my life I have played a lot of sports like tennis, paddle tennis, basketball, cycling, but none of them marked me as much as football, although it is a different football, from a different perspective, that of the goalkeeper.

When I have 7 years old, I started playing football, I wanted to start like a goalkeeper, but I couldn’t because there were a lot goalkeepers at that moment, so I started like a player, but only one year, because the next year I could play in my favourite position.

I’m playing football like a goalkeeper since I have 8 years old, and now I have 20, and I still loving it. To be a goalkeeper is a difficult task, you have to being concentrated all the time, although you don’t be participating much, you’re the more determinant player in the pitch, if you have a mistake, is goal, if you have a success, is not goal, and the goals are the more important of the football.

As I have grown I have learned more and more about this position and I have improved a lot and I continue. When I had 15 years old, that I was juvenile, I played all the season with the Senior “B” and the Senior “A”, that were in Primera Galicia and Preferente Galicia respectively, that was the best.

Now I’m in the same club, playing in the Senior “A” team as a first goalkeeper and exercising like goalkeeper trainer, but I continue forming me, to improve more and more. But at this moment, we have a stop due to the coronavirus, and we are stopped, waiting for the competition but with a lot of illusion and desire.
