Alright, so I’ve been tinkering around with this idea about tracking Vini Jr.’s goals, you know, the Real Madrid star. It all started when I was watching one of his matches, and I just thought, “Man, it would be cool to have a record of every goal he scores this season.”
So, first, I started simple. I grabbed a notebook and jotted down every goal he scored. Date, time, opponent, you name it. But, let’s be real, that got old pretty fast. Who wants to manually track goals in the age of technology, right?
Next, I moved to a spreadsheet. Yeah, much better. I could input the data, sort it, even add some fancy conditional formatting to highlight the best goals. It felt good, organized, like I was really onto something. But still, it wasn’t enough. I wanted something more dynamic, something that could give me more than just a static list.
That’s when I decided to take it to the next level. I started playing around with some video editing software. My idea was to compile all the clips of Vini’s goals into one big video. I spent hours downloading match highlights, cutting them down to just the goals, and stitching them together. It was a grind, but seeing the finished product was so worth it.
- First, I found the highlights from each match.
- Then, I isolated every goal Vini scored.
- After that, I arranged them chronologically.
- Finally, I added some simple text to show the date and opponent for each goal.
I even shared it on TikTok and some football forums. People loved it! They started asking for updates after every match, and it became this cool little community project. Although I just wanted to record 5 goals of Vini in LaLiga at the very beginning, it turned out that he has already scored 8 goals for his team.
The evolution of my tracking
From a simple notebook to a detailed spreadsheet, and then to a full-blown video compilation. I have to say, he is really a talented player that worth recording. You know what? I even found that Vini said he was inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo in an interview, and he has watched all his matches. Maybe that’s why he could play so well.
Looking back, it’s crazy to think that all of this started with just a simple thought during a match. But that’s how it goes, right? You get an idea, you start small, and before you know it, you’re creating something way cooler than you initially imagined. And you know what they say, “From amazing dribbles to unstoppable finishes.” I guess I just proved that, in my own little way.
