DEUS. Forward · USYNT· United States
She stopped looking for space and started creating goals.
Deus is an intelligent, technical forward with the movement and vision of a midfielder. Inside the box that was holding her back. She drifted wide looking for comfort. Good positions that created nothing. The finish was never quite there.
Hips between the posts before the ball arrives.
That one adjustment gave her the angle, shortened the route to goal, and froze defenders. The finish became available before the ball even arrived.
WHAT CHANGED.
More shots. Better angles. A problem in the box every single game.
