Ummm...nooo looks like you guys have no idea how to spread the ball use space and no technical ability. Just kicks passes and hopes. Must be from a football state lol.

I honestly believe that I was at least at this level at 18, and didn't even play collegiate soccer. It just shows you how much work Matt has put it in to his workouts and training and just overall development. I would say that success in soccer is not as much about talent and more about your worth ethic and attitude. I had friends in highschool that would make 18 yo Matt look like trash technically. Now he is a soccer machine playing 2nd division pro in the US. To me this is just even more proof of how dedicated and intelligent Matt is in his approach to the game.

This is so awesome. Thanks for sharing. My boys a junior midfielder and the advice you share here about the highlight video, your workouts, and even breaking down what you could be doing better, was SO helpful. Thanks for sharing Matt.

Your story inspires me because I am also a late bloomer and have struggled to keep Up with everyone else. I started working out to gain strength and hearing you have a similar story really inspires me.

wow, it was really helpful to listen to your critiques, i needed this!

as a current college player also from bellevue WA, it’s super inspiring to see this. Its nice to compare my level of play in high school to yours, helps me believe I can make it to the next level!!

Idk about you guys, but to me Matt’s high school highlights are insane

Incredibly useful video Matt. Highlight reels can have a huge say in the scope of recruitment a prospective athlete gets while they are in high school, so it is really important that every athlete really maximizes their 5-10 minutes of screen-time to get in front of some of the best college coaches in the US and make an impression. Keep putting out this valuable info - you're a huge resource for the community!

This is a great video. Gonna save this one for years to come. Please keep it up as long as possible. Have three sons, oldest just turned 9 and is a soccer dude. Aggressive player and kinda big for his age. He’s versatile, can dribble well and shoots well. He’s utilized more on defense cuz his aggressiveness and ability to shut down opposing teams when they attack. But this video is a gem to develop the right kind of video for him and his little bros when they grow. Thanks for the advice/tips on developing a solid video. I see a bright future for him in soccer, he loves soccer. Thanks again!

It's amazing how he is pointing out all the faults he has done. Matt is truly an inspiration to me and thousands of young players

This is actually a genius idea to make a video about! Thanks for being an inspo

I love watching how I used to play and seeing how much ice improved! Dope video!!

I am so amazed at the level of excellence Matt works at, especially critiquing and explaining what he would do or could do better! Very helpful

Thanks so much for breaking down the video! Right now I’m working on getting all my clips together and emailing college coaches. You have inspired me so much. I have been practicing for 4-5 hours each day and most of the trainings are using your drills! Just want to say thanks and keep up the good work.

After that I just do some ab workouts and speed in my basement lol. I just started doing this a few weeks ago so it’s pretty new to me, but when I do it I feel so confident on the ball and my passing and touch has gotten A LOT better. If you want to do it as well I suggest put some music on and just have fun with the ball :)

Awesome Video Matt, you are my idol. You inspire me everyday!

Love your vids man keep up the good work

My teammate's dad made commercials so he made highlight tapes for a few of us. This was back in the 90's when it was a lot harder and everything was still VHS. I sent a bunch out my junior year and did get some responses, including some pretty good D1 schools that had never seen me play in person. My senior year I had some scouts coming out to watch solely based on the tape. I actually started making highlight tapes for high school athletes myself as a business after I graduated college. It was a fun gig. Today anybody with a phone can do it.

Matt I'm going to Lincoln high school currently and it's crazy seeing someone from a random school in Tacoma Washington go professional, very inspirational

I like these types of videos 👍🏼 keep it up 💯

Matt is holding up the tears when talking about his 18 years old. I am sure those hard works was not easy. But what's more important is that it paid off Matt. Cheers!

I have been wanting this video for like 2 years now thank you finally.

Damn some of your runs you remind of Gareth Bale at Tottenham especially that game vs Inter at San siro. From a technical point of view very well made video and love the criticism you make for your videos, a solution and the reasons for both. Good luck man!

Great video and ideas. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I go to lincoln Southeast! I didn't know that we grew up in the same town! Loncoln high is def a force to be reconed with this year.

As someone from small schools with small teams....you guys were freaking good. No one in our league even trained, looks freaking cool

Please do more of these vids cause I am also a high school student trying to make into college soccer. Love the vids👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

You still had the sauce! Great video Matt!

Couldnt have come at a better time. Been gathering some videos to create my highlight video to hopefully send out to club teams and colleges in the future, thank you Matt

The fact that he’s honest about everything is just great

Thank God Matt points out his past mistakes and is brutally honest with himself, so we who want to learn as much as we can, don't have to make the same mistakes.

Love this type of video

As a Portland Soccer player, really love that you're helping rep the city!

Despite the level seemingly pretty low, you still had some pretty awesome plays in there and posted up some awesome stats. An excellent breakthrough season that kicked off you career. I really felt the late bloomer part aswell, kinda living the same situation except I’m still waiting to grow, I’m 5´2 115 at 15 😢

Great video Matt.....watched it with my son D'Angelo #75 he is 13 he plays striker for his club Rebels. Keep up the good work.

i love all your videos thank you for giving us this chance to see soccer videos i hope i can be like you

I started following your journey years ago, I was interested because I was also a striker who is now a right back! I think it helps that we played both cause it helps on both ends. Hopefully we can play against each other one day 🙏🏽

like a boss Matt!!!

I just sent this to my son who is 12 and has been playing soccer since the age of 4. This is going to really help him as he moves forward in the soccer journey

Do more of these!!!

Thank you man a lot you help me a lot !

It’s funny that you mention the change in position as you grew. I started from CB to CDM to LB to LW and now I’m striker

Keep doing these kind of vids

I remember being a senior playing high level club in NY and we had a forward that was a monster. Decided to play D1 baseball instead of taking the offers he had from UNC or ND. Best player I’ve ever played with and I’m sure he’d have made it into a level of pro league. Reminds me a bit of your video

Keep up making these highlights it quite amazing you a good defender I play as an attacking midfielder

This is very helpful, thank you

Invaluable advice- thanks Matt

man i was in 2nd grade when you played wilson there and now i’m going into my junior there there, i hate lincoln with all my heart but glad to see you got to the next level💯

I stopped playing for a year and ahalf, but man, in that time I learned so much about confidence and composure

That jumping celebration 😂😂👍👍

Thanks for all your advice👍 which will make us viwers better players

Bob is king. Lol, he corrects so much XD

Hey Matt! First off I want to say I’m really proud of living in the city that you play for! But I’m a 17 year old skinny boy and I see that you were very skinny too back in your teen years. Could you make a video or how to gain muscle mass and how to look like a soccer player like lean and fast but at the same time big enough to use body in soccer. Also could you make a video of like gym routines that soccer players should have? You’re an amazing player I hope we can go back to the stadium so I can see you play!!

MATT SHELDON!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I like these videos. Do more

The video is pretty awesome. I loved your celebrations and u were very fast then..

Thank You Matt.

The way he ran back in high school looks really satisfying lol Maybe it’s just me 😂

Portland Oregon Represent 🙌🏻. I go to Madison Highschool. I love your videos man

It would be cool to see your old teammates where are they now or even teammates that were better than you that would be a nice vid

This is awesome!

7:34 that commentary tho 😎😂

Need more like vids like this

look up clay county soccer club, you are a player that looks like he would’ve grown and played from them because your playstyle is how they imagine their players to play. one of the best clubs in florida

Gof matt you would have been a great winger or striker ,so fast and athletic

just an idea, you should make a video showing high school kids how to make their highlight videos better. You clearly know how to market yourself as a footballer and a lot of people could benefit from that. Great video

I love how you said you flopped on that play 😂 that’s high school soccer though

thanks matt for all the honest feedback. take care.

good stuff matt

I remember our Croatian coach man, simpler times

Haven’t finished the video but you play high school ball in Oregon. Pretty cool to known

I'm from Belgium and i'm 18 and I play for the first team in the 3rd devision. College/ high school soccer in easy in the US. I reallt wish I whas born in the US cause it is so nice that you can play soccer for your school

6:20 How in the world is that a bad touch that was awesome lol

My junior year was where I made my mark I only scored once in my senior year. I didn’t like playing wing I prefer being a sweeper and or defensive mid so being a winger was a hard switch for me for my senior year and I pretty much couldn’t get with it.

Are you from Oregon !! ayeeeee

Hey Matt, great video, I just wanted to ask how you edit the highlight video to have a circle around you so that teams can identify which player you are, thanks.

Would be interesting to see you play forward or midfield in a game now. The style is so different from your pro clips.

Hey those are my friends in the Cleveland game! I remember one year I attended the Lincoln Cleveland away game and my buddy scored from like 30 yards. You guys normally beat us but we had pretty good teams in 2010 and 2011
