Toulon Tournament is a small tournament that is participated by 12 countries. Countries that can participate in this tournament are countries that are invited.

Indonesia is also among the 12 countries. In this 2018 Toulon tournament, Indonesia has played 1 time and won against Scotland in the first game.

In the second match they face hosts France.

The match between the two is also now underway at the Stade d'Honnour.

This match has also entered the second round, but the scoreline is still 0 0.

It's not because they play hard or anything, but this game is very exciting and hot.

Both teams are buying and selling attacks, every opportunity opportunity that exists will also be a real threat to one team, but each opportunity has not been maximized so that the score of each draw.

The match in the second half has also entered the 69th minute, the ball possession is now at the feet of the French players.

The French pressed Indonesian territory, they pressed compactly. Start on both sides and front.

The Indonesian players were also confined, but they were used to it because since the second half began, France applied a different pressing scheme to the first half.

The time of the game continues to run along with the ball that continues to move on the pass by the French players to find space so that the ball can get to the front or the back area of the Indonesian team's defense.

But they are still difficult to break through because the Indonesian players are compact and solid.

They look after each other and fill each other when one of the posts or gaps is left or open.

Entering the 76th minute, Sean who had been pressing on the opposing player who had the ball nearby, felt that he could not continue like this.

Sean then ran small into the middle of the field alone leaving his post.

He intends to keep the opposing defender in possession of the ball, because he thinks the most dangerous position is the defender because they can see the situation in front from behind.

Sean stood among the 2 opposing defenders.

Other players are still focused on passing the ball and Indonesian players focus on pressing.

"Why is Sean standing there?" Coach Indra Sjafri thought on the sidelines.

Commentators on Indonesian television channels also saw the actions of Sean who stood leaving his position.

"What does this mean Sean?"

"Wouldn't he help his partner again?"

"No, you're wrong." Reveal one of the commentators.

"Look at the time."

"Sean is aware that if the time goes on and the match is still this way, where Indonesia is on tap, Indonesia will not be able to score."

"He stood there to cover the movement of both opposing defenders in which both defenders were able to make dangerous passes."

"The two defenders were sitting there watching the situation, so what was they looking at from back to front other than the situation?"

"They're trying to see the gap between the moves or spaces left by our players." Answer the other commenter.

"Yes right, when the defender already knows it, he will ask for the ball and immediately launch a long pass forward."

"This is where Sean's job is, he'll shut down the opposing defenders' second move to make the pass."

"In addition, he can also snatch the ball when the defender asks his partner for the ball."

"So what would happen if Sean managed to snatch the ball from the opposing defender? He will alone dribble into the opponent's territory and will only be 1 on 1 with the goalkeeper alone."

At first they were also upset because Sean arrived to leave his colleague who was in trouble and was trying while he arbitrarily stood still in the middle of the field with opposing defenders.

Entering the 74th minute, Sean moved quickly when he saw the movement of the opposing defender who asked for the ball.

The opposing player also passes to the opposing defender without seeing the situation first.

When the ball was heading to the opposing defender, Sean had run quickly to seize the ball.

The other opponent's defender when he saw Sean also reacted immediately, he immediately took a few steps back to be able to close Sean if Sean got the ball.

With Sean's running speed, Sean managed to catch up with the opponent's defenders. The opposing defending player was also startled as he felt a gust of wind at his edge.

When looking forward again he saw that the player in red had already dribbled towards his territory.

"Syll."

The opposing defender also tried to run again quickly to catch Sean, but Sean dribbled quickly.

Moreover, Sean who rarely ran from the first round, his stamina is still very much.

Other players from both teams were also shocked when they saw this incident.

Coach Indra Sjafri on the sidelines yelled at the Indonesian players to come forward to follow him.

The French coach was also shocked and immediately shouted to do everything possible to avoid goals.

Sean who has now entered the opponent's territory also found that there was one of the opposing defenders who confronted him.

Sean calmly used the step over trick first.

The right foot steps the ball to the left, the left foot steps the ball to the right, continuing to do repeatedly with body movements that are almost in rhythm with foot movements.

When Sean's body is to the left and Sean's right foot has stepped to the left, Sean's left foot does not step to the right, but he moved the ball to the right with his right foot already stepping towards the left earlier.

The opposing defender also closes Sean's body, he follows Sean's movements and moves towards his right.

But in an instant he saw that Sean had already passed him.

Sean's body did move to the left but the ball he moved to the right, and quickly the body also followed the direction of the ball.

With that move, Sean made it past the last opposing defender.

Sean also immediately accelerated again dribbling the ball.

When entering the penalty box, Sean faced 1 on 1 with the French goalkeeper.

The French goalkeeper has also played.

Sean took a swipe to shoot, when his right foot would touch the ball, he moved the ball again to the right slightly.

The goalkeeper who was ready with a shot Seaan had also jumped, but he found that the ball was not kicked.

Sean who had done the trick again also calmly kicked the ball towards the goal without looking.

Or it can be called a no look goal. Sean did that because he had already passed his goalkeeper as well.

Where the goalkeeper's dead step.

Before long, Sean looked at the goal to make sure the ball went in.

When he saw the ball in the goal, he immediately ran to the corner of the field and celebrated with his right hand closing one eye and then with the tongue sticking forward.
