He committed in his mind to pick the ball up and once he made his last step towards the
ball he was out of position to dive, he actually needed to back up. (he's 6-5 in height)
The ball is at his feet and only inches in front of him.
Put something on the ground inches from your feet and then try and dive on it without
moving your feet backward.
Will not work.
He actually actually got his hand on the ball after backing up but didn't hold it.
