"Would it have made more sense to just clear the ball instead of passing it to Kim, which caused a goal?"
"Generally, yes. But on the other hand, it's our style of play that we want to play football, that even when we're under pressure we try to find a solution through our passing game. If we regularly rely on long clearances, then the opponents will press us more and more. So we should definitely maintain this DNA."
Maintain the team's passing-based style even when under pressure. Prefer finding solutions through passing rather than resorting to long clearances. Regularly using long clearances invites opponents to press more intensely. Playing out from the back through passing helps preserve the team's DNA and tactical identity. Under pressure, attempting to construct play via passing aims to retain possession and control. Avoiding frequent long clearances reduces the likelihood of opponents increasing their high press. Commitment to a passing game requires accepting occasional risks but seeks longer-term tactical advantages by discouraging persistent opponent pressing.
