#28 - Marcelo Abeyay
I started playing soccer when I was 6 years old because I watched my Dad play in the Chilean Pro league. I started as a GK for the first 3 or 4 years as a youth, then moved to Attacking Midfielder, which were my best years playing that position, but over the last 10 years I have become a defensive Midfielder, especially after I played in the AISL and MISL leagues, and I enjoy the role of defending and attacking.
My Story
I started playing soccer when I was 6 years old because I watched my Dad play in the Chilean Pro league. I started as a GKfor the first 3 or 4 years as a youth, then moved to Attacking Midfielder, which was my best years playing that position, but over the last 10 year become a defensive Midfield specially after I played in the AISL and MISL league, and enjoy the role of defending and attacking. The ball is always faster than a player, so it is not always about being the hero, but learn how to play as a team. It means a lot, being able to represent your country, International or National an Honor even more as a senior. I think at this age the biggest Challange is physically and is because I can train very hard but I can't over due it.
