PES 294, Skill Analysis
Stage: Expert
Stage Characteristics: First Player was quick off the snap. He quickly turned and sidesteped to increase his reaction time. He showed a proper 3 step grapevine, then he planted his back foot to increase his control when throwing, which would then lead to the throw. The second player showed similar skills except it was like he was moving in slow motion.
What to Change: The second player is moving slow. He needs to move back quicker and plant his foot faster so he is back and able to throw in a shorter amount of time.
Cue: For the second player a good cue would be "Reaction Time" because he needs to speed up his movements.
