Description of issue
Playmakers especially, but most players, do not play through passes when in attacking positions (except when the receiver is clearly offside but that's a different albeit related report).
47:57 -- Odegaard is an APs. In this position he dribbles straight into the path of Saka's run and shoots from outside the box. As an advanced playmaker, he has the More Risky Passing and Shoot Less Often PIs hard-coded. Saka is clearly onside, and Martinelli in the left half-space might be available too.
83:27 -- Havertz is a CMa with the Take More Risks PI. In this position he plays the ball back and to the feet of Balde at the top of the image.
93:42 -- Balde is a CWBa. There's definitely a far-post cross on here, but also potentially a through-ball into the left channel or a pass (or cross) to the penalty spot. Balde shoots from one dribble further in than this position.
