Hard to say exactly what he loves the most. Obviously he loves being with his friends and playing the game. Very competitive kid and wants to win. But he also gets a lot of joy when his friends are successful also!
He inspired by Messi and other pro players. But when his team can produce successful moments in games that they have worked on in practice adds a level of excitement where he can first hand see the progress and that motivates him to work hard in training!
One moment specifically was a game against and older opponent and the team was down by 2 goals (0-2). Luke stayed very positive and kept his head up. That attitude was noticed by his peers and that drove them to a 3-2 win. Luke scored one of the those goals and was a big part of the build up that helped his teammates score the other 2 goals!
