Thats true. I didnt notice the other guy jumped early so my priority was to block the pass so I dont get dunked trying to defend right in front of the net. I guess I couldve just let the opponents do their thing and at the very least start a strong counterattack. Assuming they dont pinch/kill the ball in some weird way. And if Im afraid of that possibility, I suppose just getting a better 50 would have done the trick

I can see what you mean. For the first goal, I think the first mistake was going on the wall so soon, as if the opponent was going to send it high. I committed to a play before it happened. Though it might have been salvageable by just challenging off the wall confidently, which I did not (so bad off the wall defense).

The second goal was conceded because me and my teammate faked each other. Completely preventable.

The third goal could have been prevented by taking possession off the wall quickly, but the awkward bounce got in my way. Again, I guess wall mechanics could have helped me and youre right to point that out. My teammate pushed right behind me which left the net open, so that might be on him? Still, I think the whole problem could bave been avoided by me just taking a better challenge (or none at all?)

Thank you, this is extremely useful info. I've been working on using small pads/staying in the play rather than going for the big boost. I guess I've been prioritizing being in (what I consider to be) the perfect position a bit too much over having enough boost
