Football is not like basketball. Basketball is a passer who passes the ball to his teammates. A teammate who scores directly without passing or dribbling is called an assist. Moreover, teammates don't talk about passing the ball, as long as they bring the ball, it is not an assist. And football? As long as it is passed to teammates, and the latter doesn't pass the ball a few times, it is an assist, but the shot after a long-distance attack in the backcourt can only be regarded as an indirect assist. After the long-distance raid, everyone will hear the commentator say that XXX sent the ball to XXX, but they will not hear that XXX assisted XXX. Therefore, those who hold the ball for a long time after passing the ball cannot be regarded as real assists or direct assists.
