Focus on defense, and join the attack if there's an opportunity.
Dashing in front of Huang Kaiwen, he directly extended his left foot.
The challenge of defending a left-footed player lies here; most players in football are right-footed.
Right-footed players find it awkward to defend against left-footed players.
Because of this, he specifically trained his left foot.
Huang Kaiwen swung his left ankle, passing the ball to his right foot, causing Kuyt to miss.
After Kuyt pulled back his left foot, only then did Huang Kaiwen make a move with his right foot.
Seeing Huang Kaiwen's ankle twitching again, Kuyt instinctively stretched out his left foot once more. Yet he didn't expect Huang Kaiwen to push the ball with his instep, while his right foot moved to the left side of the ball naturally, using the outer instep to hook the ball back.
Kuyt quickly adjusted his footwork to shift his balance.
