Jensen's Journey

My football journey began when my dad introduced me to watching the FIFA World Cup 2022. From the moment I watched the tournament with him, I felt a deep connection to the game. At that time, I didn’t play or even fully understand football, but the energy, the goals, and the passion sparked a fire inside me.

In March 2023, I officially started my football journey, learning the basics from scratch. Just four months later, in July 2023, I began training with the competitive team and played in my very first competitive match. Since then, I’ve developed into a focused, disciplined, and coachable player, trusted to play multiple positions, from center back to central midfield.

Football has taught me much more than how to pass or shoot. It has instilled in me resilience, focus, and passion. Win or lose, rain or shine, I train with intensity and compete with heart. Every day is a step toward my goal of becoming a professional footballer. And this is just the beginning.

“Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”

Every session counts — not just the ones during team training. Whether it’s 1-on-1 with my coach, working on ball mastery at home, or training in the rain, I always try to put in the extra effort. These are the moments that push me forward.
