Marangwanda is a defender on the Crossfire Premier 09 ECNL team. He is listed as a center back/outside back on his player profile on social media. I’ve only seen him play left center back. His athleticism makes it obvious that he could play as an outside back too – thanks to his speed and 1v1 defending. He offers unrivaled pace for the position. He’s made a number of highlight reel blocks in recent games. Crossfire tends to send numbers forward – and also tends to have a big advantage in the score – so there is pressure on Marangwanda as a last line. He’s been very good in that role. He wins the foot race and comes away cleanly with the ball – if he doesn’t win it, he usually gets a block on the shot. He can be a bit too reliant on one foot in the tackle. His competitiveness and drive to outwork everyone are the best attributes for scouts to know about the young defender from Crossfire.
