He receives the ball 50 yards from goal. He takes one touch forward and draws a defender toward him. He dips his shoulder to the right, unbalances the defender and pushes the ball ahead with his left. He strides forward 20 yards, across the bisection of the field, toward the 18-yard box.
The defense drops and collapses toward the center. He advances to 25 yards from goal and before you think it’s even an option, snaps a shot across his body toward the far corner. It starts about knee height then drops, skipping off the grass beyond the goalkeeper’s outstretched arms into the side netting.
