Cristian Espinoza '22 Recruiting Profile

My name is Cristian Espinoza. I play for both High School and Club. I can truly say I love this sport because with all honesty, soccer for me is more important than a lot of things. I can only find enjoyment from soccer. I think what would make me a good candidate to a team is that I always try and push my teammates and myself to do better whether we’re tied, losing, or winning. I like keeping the game fast and intense because of how much better the game feels and looks. I like having a good time with my teammates when practicing because it makes it that much more enjoyable, and going out to eat with them after games is always a plus. I’d like to think that my playing style brings something different to the games. If I feel theres an opportunity to take it forward as an attacking mid I do. If I don’t see a viable option to attack forward I’ll play it back and try and build the attack back up. One thing I love doing on my free-time is going to tapes and recordings and looking back on both the positive and negative things I do during the games. I always give myself praise when looking back on things I feel I did good on, and when I see things I messed up on I try to evade those mistakes in future games. Another thing I like doing is watching Pro players that occupy the same position as me and try to incorporate some of what they do into my games and practices.
