That was a thing of beauty. Extremely well executed but not without risk. It's also not a great example. It doesn't have to be like that. When the goalie has the opportunity and the outfield player is well placed pass the ball. If not, do something else.

It just seems obvious to me that in the game of football when you can, pass to one of your own players. Hoofing upfield and hoping for the best should be a last resort. That's not to say you can't go long to someone running into space, but booting into the pack when you can actually use your feet and hand to control the ball just seems a waste.
