André Schürrle
World Cup Final, 20214 - Argentina : Germany
He is not alone.Defenders are close.
The space looks closed.
Everything seems under control.Schürrle receives the ball wide.
No urgency. No danger.
At least, that’s what it looks like.Then, without noise,
he places the ball
exactly where it needs to be.
Exactly when it needs to be.No duel.
No shot.
Just a decision that breaks the game.
