Barcelona vs Newcastle gave me one reflection. In Spain, we often talk about having the ball not only to score, but also to breathe, to break the rhythm, and to make the game be played in another tempo. And I think this is key when Spanish teams face Premier League teams 👇

A lot of people say possession is only useful if it helps you score, and that a pass without forward intention is a bad pass. But the game has another layer. Sometimes the value is emotional: the opponent feels small… and you feel the control growing.

College Soccer Truth ™
College Soccer Truth ™@ImCollegeSoccer·
DM: Advice for incoming freshmen from a D1 player Communicate, communicate, communicate. I came in this fall pretty overwhelmed (which is NORMAL). But what I didn’t do, was take advantage of the resources and support system I had around me. I wasn’t playing as a freshman, which made me hesitant to ask questions, to ask for help. In my mind, I thought “well I don’t play so what does it matter”. Ask the questions. Ask for more training. Ask for feedback. Ask to do heavier lifts. You’re not a burden- especially if you aren’t playing! You HAVE to do the extra work on your own, no exceptions. Come in fit. Get stronger. Be excellent on the ball. Hold yourself accountable and to a standard- much higher than you think. Take care of yourself. From personal experience, this is one of the most important parts. Make sure you will have something outside of soccer that allows you to take a mental break. College soccer is a job, especially at the D1 level. You’re here because you want it to be that way, but you can’t let it consume you. Meet non-athletes, join a club, or go try something new. It’s okay to make time for yourself. College is a huge adjustment, regardless if you are moving 10 minutes down the road, or a plane ride across the country. Give yourself grace, ask for help, do the work, and enjoy the process. You’ve got this! -NCAA D1 Athlete #CSTruth Truth!

A sign of emotional intelligence is the ability to laugh at yourself. 6 studies: After making small mistakes, people are seen as warmer and more capable if they're amused instead of embarrassed. Taking your responsibilities seriously but your ego lightly is a core life skill.
