🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 74s

"Why does Holland, at 25 years old, sometimes seem like a mama's boy? What many people don't know is that who really shaped his personality wasn't just football, but his mother, Grie Marita Braut. Holland's mother is a former Norwegian heptathlon champion and rarely appears in public. However, whenever Holland achieves a victory with the Norwegian national team, he writes his mother's name on his shirt as a way to show his gratitude. Since he was little, she taught him three fundamental principles for life. The first, never resort to violence. Despite his impressive physical stature, which has earned him the nickname Monster by many fans, Holland is known for his calm and gentle temperament, a characteristic he attributes to his mother's teachings. The second, respect all club staff. She always told him that a team's victories depend not only on the players, but also on all the professionals who work behind the scenes. Therefore, after training sessions, Holland usually helps collect the balls and often pays for meals to thank the staff. The third, always remain humble. Whether in interviews or in contact with fans, Holland shows sincerity and simplicity, qualities frequently praised by his teammates."
