Zachary was as hardworking as ever during the first few minutes of the second half. For that game, he played as a true-blue central midfielder. He didn't just focus on attacking but would also constantly fall back to defend against Fiorentina's barrage of attacks.
He understood that Fiorentina was a much stronger team when compared to Rosenborg. He knew that he couldn't let himself relax and leave the defending to his teammates. So, he worked harder than ever and was like a tireless madman in the midfield with his S-graded stamina, endurance, and agility attributes.
Moreover, since he'd studied the weakness and habits of the Fiorentina squad before the game, he was more effective on the pitch. Whenever the opponents had the ball, he was always quick to make a decision since he could easily predict their playing patterns from their previous matches. Thanks to his efforts, Rosenborg prevented the Italian side from scoring the opening goal on several occasions.
