There are few similarities between football and acting. He must know that he is a striker with OC Sporting White in the Fourth Division Football League Football League and a representative that includes his “modern family” credit for television and SLASHER “Halloween Kills”.
“They are opposite polarists,” he said. “Someone is about having a mental will to push yourself and pay the pain and you have a kind of stubbornness for you.”
That will be football.
“Others revolve much more about feeling sympathy and sympathy with your feelings,” he added. “You play a fantasy, but it’s a matter of putting your head in this imagination.”
It will be to act.

However, eggerling, which is exceptional in both, is not sure that it will last longer with either of them. He is 17 years old while attending school online, and Eggerling has an average grade of 4.6 and a passion for engineering. So, while being athlete or actor – much less than both – may be a dream for many, it is not his dream.
“Since I was ten years old, when we toured JPL, I wanted to be an engineer in NASA,” said Eggerling. “It is more than my identity. I have a natural talent in mathematics and academics. I feel these tools are more useful for playing football and acting.”
This does not mean that he surrenders either at the present time.
“I just do it because I really love [it]He said. “It is very fun to play a role or play sport.”

Eggerling, his brother Gabi, followed acting, which led to his appearance at the age of four. Then he continued his father in football; Christian Iggling played for 17 years, but he has not had the opportunity to go to professionals in pre -MLS days. He says that his son can do so.
“I had my gifts and he was three steps in front of me,” said Elder Eggerling, 54, CEO of hospitality and cooking operations in Hope. “He has some real capabilities.”
But Eggerling Paul Caligiuri coach, who He was The professional, who plays 110 times for the American national team and makes seven World Cup beginnings, pumps the brakes a little on those expectations.
“I don’t think he is walking quickly to go to professionals now,” said Calijiri. “But it is a unique individual in terms of its speed. [From] When I started training him to where there is now, it is a great and amazing progress.
“He has this mentality. Also, the fact that he is a great actor, it seems as if his lifestyles are completely unique to be successful at all levels.”
After Eggerling with the UPSL team was for a while and it was clear that he could carry himself, Caligiuri began to introduce his colleagues as an actor.
“And men go” nothing! “Then you see the level of admission to enhance because it is great to be an actor.”

Eggerling, who lives in Orange, is not the first person to be in acting and football. Andrew Shue (“Melrose Place,“ The Rainmaker ”Played Five Games for the Galaxy in the Inaugural MLS Season While Eric Braeden, who was a daytime emmy Award for his Portrayal of the Villainous Tor Newman on “The Young and the Restless, “Maccabe Los Angeles Soccer Club led to the US Open Cup in 1973. Recently, Gina Ortega (” screaming “,” Beeetlejuice “), which first appeared in acting in 10, said that it gives up almost Hollywood football. As an estimate -Schooler.
Agelling says the world -up world is more competitive than football.
“Very brutal,” he said. “It was nice and naive in football. Once we started reaching high -end clubs, we were like” this is a familiar feeling. “Because acting, [from] Get very descending, it’s very competitive. “
However, for all differences, the two can be complementary.

“With football, it comes to a lot of mental hardness for you. Football has taught me how to work hard.” “Obviously, you can apply it to acting.”
His parents were the key to his success. His chef is watching his diet, and because Eggerling did not find time to obtain a driver’s license, his mother, Melissa, is moving on tests and football practices.
“A lot of driving. “Put a lot of cars in the grave,” said Christian Iggering. It makes early morning and sometimes late nights. And make sure that all the washing takes place between them. “
Parents say they are also sure that they are not being because they saw many children who were pushed to continue acting or football after a long period of enjoying it. If Trysian feels this way, they will be invited to resign or stay, not for their benefit.

“You don’t want to play another season, I am good with that,” said Melissa Iggling. “But you don’t stop something in this process, because there are other people [involved]. He besieged himself around people who have more than that and knows more than him, because this is the way you build yourself. This is how it grows.
“You cannot let the people who support you and be there for you, but you can stop or transform the gears and do something else, if this is what you want to do.”
The next station for Eggerling may be England, as it will have to find his own way. After admiration during an experience there last summer, it can return next year to play football and study engineering in Newcastle. Where this leads him, but with his football talents or nest egg he saved from Hollywood to finance his university education, Eggerling is unusually ready for the following behavior.
He said, “The next play is the most important play,” and he repeats the lesson that he learned from Caliguri. “You never close the door. You always keep your options open.”
