2018 MOUNT MERCY UNIVERSITY - FRESHMAN
Possible is everything.
HEIGHT 6-2
6-2 with only 17 years old, makes it believe a few more inches are still to come. Either way, his height combined with his agility, will always make a perfect combination for the position.
HIGH PERFORMANCE FOOT SKILLS
Besides the traditional goalkeeping skills that he presents, Matias is also gifted with his foot game, seldom used to start killing counter attacks favoring his team.
OFFICIALLY PLAYING SINCE UNDER 10
Matias started practicing regularly since his 8 years old, but it was only when he was 10 years old that he decided goalkeeping would be his scene and began playing officially. Soccer has no secrets for him!
"Practice makes perfect!"
I love this quote because I know it's so true. Whenever there is something I want to improve, I know already what's the secret weapon to make it happen. It may not go well the first attempts, but I don't care. I keep trying and trying and trying... and I know that eventually, I will be close to perfection later on! That's the piece of advice I would like to share with anyone who seeks for improvements in his/her sports activities or in life. It worked before. It'll work again and again, as long as you don't give up!
