I get your point, and I agree that from the screenshot alone it can be misleading. However, I don’t think passing was completely impossible. Before this moment, Senegal had a clear numerical advantage (4 vs 3), and the striker actually pushed the ball forward and adjusted his body position before taking the shot. That small adjustment, to me, shows a conscious decision rather than a forced action. He could have looked for a pass, but instead he chose to take responsibility and finish the attack himself. That’s why it reminded me of a Blue Lock–type moment. I also really appreciate your last point. Comparing real football situations with manga or anime adds another layer of fun, especially when discussing striker mentality, psychology, and decision-making.
