One thing I noticed is that when we're on the break, everyone tends to converge at the same point. In this case Sayo actually drags the guy who ultimately takes the ball away into the play. If he'd stayed wide that guy wouldn't be there.
This is something that tends to happen no matter who is playing. At some point last night I started trying to stay back on purpose to try and mitigate the crowding.
Same thing again. Winger is crashing into the middle.
If Red holds wide run 1 of 2 things probably happens
1) CPU defender stays glued to him and Green is in easily on the keeper
2) CPU defender crashes and Red is sent in on the keeper
The only way this ball is intercepted is if they are both crashing toward the same spot. The pass could have been better too, of course, but we can minimize wayward passes by keeping our spacing better to exploit the matchups on defenders too.
