zone defense has always been inefficient for marking priority targets, not just in football but in american football as well. There's a reason why you go man to man coverage, and even double-teaming, when up against the best player on the field. I understand that the defense just can't invest three players on Zachary the whole match, but zoning just won't stop athletes like him from still making plays while having to maintain a proper formation, which is what football is all about. Either they hold possession and game tempo, or completely isolate Zachary, but not both, especially not with his new physical fitness levels. Zach on the other hand is playing a free position and should be ruining the opposition's formation every moment he could, easily leaving gaps for his teamates to capitalize on. And that is what should've been what occured in the previous matches but for some reason, all his teammates are somehow always marked or unavailable even with 3-4 opponents always out of the equation to mark him. I honestly am surprised they haven't scored more goals by now from Zach's assists and defense-breaking passes in tandem with his tendency to draw the defense to him. From what I could tell, he's been doing a lot more waiting for the ball and charging ahead, and less of executing playmaking passes and midfield-command strategies, which would have been absolutely effective against their recent oppenents.
Sorry but what Angy did was an irrevocable mistake, imo. The seed of betrayal she just planted in Gustav's heart will be there permanently, and I believe no amount of time or effort will completely erase that. At best, she will just remain an acquaintance moving forward, maybe even a close ally depending on how the future unfolds, or maybe the two will simply grow apart. Sad.
