Exclusive Interview with Valparaiso Mariners AC Midfielder Otto Lange

Reporter: Thank you for taking the time to sit down with us, Otto. Let's start with your recent exceptional form on the pitch. Despite not playing any matches this season, how have you managed to maintain such a high level of skill?

Otto Lange: Well, football has always been a passion of mine. Even though I may not always put in the extra work like some of my teammates, I have a natural talent that helps me perform well when I step onto the field.

Reporter: Your practice ethics have been a topic of discussion among fans and critics alike. How do you respond to those who call you lazy?

Otto Lange: I understand where they're coming from, but I believe in finding a balance between my love for football and my other interests. I enjoy having fun and spending time with my family, and I believe that helps me stay grounded and refreshed for when I do play.

Reporter: It's no secret that you have a reputation for pushing through injuries and concussions. How do you manage to stay healthy despite these challenges?

Otto Lange: I've always been a bit of a risk-taker, both on and off the pitch. I know I may not age well physically, but I'm willing to take that chance in order to continue playing the sport I love.

Reporter: Finally, tell us about your favorite club to play against and your preferred formation and play style.

Otto Lange: I always enjoy facing off against IDF, as they bring out the best in me. My favorite formation is 4-3-3, and I like to play a neutral play style that allows me to adapt to whatever the game demands.

Reporter: Thank you for your time, Otto. Before we wrap up, can you share a random interesting fact about your life?

Otto Lange: Sure! One interesting fact about me is that I have a twin brother who also plays football professionally, although he's more of a defender than a midfielder like me. It's always fun to have that friendly competition with him.
