About this listen

 I had the wonderful opportunity to speak with Viggo Ortiz, a young aspiring talent from Dallas Texas, who recently moved to Austin Texas with his family to pursue a bright future in Soccer. Viggo and his team Austin FC brought back the Generations Championship from Florida. The annual tournament offered MLS and international sides the chance to match up against one another, with talented prospects from around the world battling it out in Florida over the past week.  Some of the best and brightest players in both MLS academies and around the world competed at the 2023 Generation adidas Cup in Florida. MLSsoccer.com has named a Best XI of players from MLS and abroad that impressed scouts and observers at the annual tournament. Viggo Ortiz was one of those names! Few teams stole the show at the 2023 Generation adidas Cup quite like Austin FC, and Ortiz was responsible for several magical moments. He won a penalty against New York Red Bulls that put his side on the way to a win, and his passing and dribbling ability earned him the MVP award for the U-15 age group. His father Bernie Ortiz attributes "Futsal" for Ortiz's soccer development! Since the age of 6 Viggo played A LOT of FUTSAL!!
