3A Matchday 7’s Best Performers

The penultimate article for the 3A level covers some of the best performers for matchday 7. Plenty of players shone, especially in a crucial stretch of regular season. The talents that impressed the most helped their teams massively, proving to be great team players. Even though the list was long, these were the top players for this matchday in my opinion.    Leslie is a second-striker/attacking midfielder who excels in the final third greatly. Her movement is one of her most defining attributes, getting into pockets of space quickly. If she wants to receive the ball in the box, she knows exactly where to move to exploit her chance. Another great attribute of hers is her shooting. She will take any chance she has to shoot, even if she's not in the box. Her shots aren't just empty threats either, as they create constant danger regardless of the outcome. The shots she takes also show how technically gifted she is. She'll move her body correctly in order to get the necessary technique for a shot on target.     J'Nya is a wide player who typically plays on the left and does so excellently. Her pace makes her incredibly difficult to defend in open space, often breezing past defenders like they're not there. If she does not have open space to run to, she uses her agility and dribbling skills to free herself from pressure. With subtle movements, she gets past her marker with little effort. She's also incredibly intelligent, knowing what the play is asking for before even receiving the ball. On the ball, she stays out wide, allowing her to create spaces in the middle for her to pass into. If she doesn't pass, she'll shoot. Her shooting is incredible, getting shots on target more often than not. Her conversion rate is also fantastic for a winger.     Natalia is a striker who excels in being the focal point in attack. Her central positioning leaves her constantly in great areas, which makes her midfield's job easier as well. She doesn't just stay forward, however. If the play calls for it, she'll drop back to help in the buildup. And, regardless of what the play asks for, she does not abandon her team. She'll link the play if necessary, even if it means she doesn't get the final ball. When she's in the box, she shines the brightest, though. She pounces on chances, even if it seems difficult. No ball inside the box is a lost ball for her, always looking to get a shot off. Her shooting is also fantastic, combining technique with effectiveness.     Altea is an attacking midfielder who helps circulate the ball more centrally when her team needs it. With her attacking mindset, she links up with her forwards and any midfield runners to pierce through the middle. Her passes through the center are threaded perfectly, finding teammates in prime positions. If she needs to play it out wide, she does so easily as well.     Jaide is a very talented prospect who plays as an attacking midfielder for her school. When her team is in possession high up the pitch, she helps circulate the ball effectively. Allowing her team to be fluid in attack, she knows where to position herself to make plays advance as smoothly as possible. Her vision and passing also prove how intelligent she is. Often beating multiple players with passes, she makes her attacker's jobs easy. Her final ball is fantastic, creating big chances for fun. She's also very active and progressive, making her difficult to stop even off the ball. Her ball control is yet another attribute that shows how talented she is, being able to control it in tight spaces.
