Had to overcome setbacks-learning to speak(born with Apraxia speech dis.), coaches not believing in him. Worked very hard, now balling out!

Sasha always says he loves the feeling when he is on the pitch with the ball, he forgets about everything and loves it when the pressure is on and it's up to him to score... He loves the adrenaline he gets when he scores or creates something magical on the pitch.
Christiano Ronaldo's discipline, determination and work ethic is extremely inspirational, especially because he doesn't need the money, his love for the game drives him to keep working harder than everyone else.
After I made the FCDallas pre mls next team, a new coach took over and I was not his favorite. No matter how well I played, he excluded me off game rosters and I didn't get invited to a major tournament. Instead of being salty, I kept working harder, ate clean, got enough sleep and kept getting better. My last game before moving to LA I balled out, scored, assisted and controlled the game defensively. Coach told me after the game that he made a mistake by not inviting me to the tourney.
