When I was two years old, I used to watch football on TV with my dad and I was thinking “how are these football players so good?” I wanted to become a football player too.
Two years later I decided to join a football team. The first year I was scared, but my teammates helped me calm down and I felt stronger. Next year, I started playing matches and I scored my first goal. From then on, I started to exercise harder and with a lot of effort I became better.
Some years later, my team was the best in Kozani, and we were unbeatable. We played fifty matches, and we won four trophies.
My goal is some day to become a professional footballer because I love football, and I want to play for my country.
