Both goals started in the same place: the left half space, with the full back holding width and the winger drifting inside to occupy the centre back.
It is not a complicated idea. What makes it work is that the third runner arrives from midfield at exactly the moment the defensive line has committed to the ball.
They have scored six goals from this pattern since August. Opponents have had two months to prepare for it.
