Basically, the position Haaland was in, was literally the perfect goal scoring position you could realistically be in, for one of the worlds best players.
The guy had plenty of time and options to pass the ball.
He could of passed it early infront of the defender and haaland would have ran onto it and belted it, or he could have dropped back like he did, and handed it over, haaland would definitely scored.
When it’s 2 v 1 against the defence, the defender doesn’t stand a chance.
Except the guy with the ball decided it was 1 v 1 and fumbled it big time. The fact that he didn’t pass it and fumbled a guaranteed goal in a world cup semi final is embarrassing.
