In the world of football, the axiom of the sport is getting on that pitch and grabbing that win with a laser focus. Off the pitch, it’s about stripping back egos, taking some time to offset the competitive nature of the sport and enjoying yourself. Take tom Bischof as an example:
“I’m relaxed and easygoing. A guy who’s always up for a laugh,” the Bayern midfielder said (ranSport via @iMiaSanMia). “I’m also relaxed before games, listening to a bit of music and joking around. I would describe myself as a family person and enjoy doing things with my friends. That’s how I would describe myself.”
Sometimes it might seem like a surprise when you see a footballer or any famous person doing something that you’d normally do, but that’s because they’re still humans and not some sort of robot. Even Erling Haaland, someone considered to possess robotic qualities, has a personality off the pitch (check his socials). The point here is that you should enjoy everything outside of football as much as you enjoy playing/watching it.
