You come on with your team down a goal in an elimination scenario precisely to calm things down and help generate as many chances as possible in the next twenty minutes.
For the most experienced youth player in the program to do exactly the opposite is inexcusable.
BTW northoaklandfc , I understand your point about teaching a player to play multiple positions in an effort to build a more well rounded player but take a listen to the podcast link below specifically at the 19.40 mark.
It's Grant Wahl's Planet Futbol podcast featuring Thomas Rongen whose talking about what Cruyff (RIP) believed in & that's position specific training, which per Cruyff should be done as early as possible.
Rongen goes on to say that's what Cruyff did at Ajax & Barca. He also said that Cruyff had the belief that the world of football needed to go back to position specific training to become better footballers.

amirite @sea manup
Rongen said position specific training should start as early as possible but I'm pretty confident he doesn't mean that literally. It's pretty widely accepted, in large part specifically because of Cruyff's work and general Dutch coaching philosophy that's spread around the world since, that specific position training isn't really appropriate in the early beginner stages specifically U6-U8.
What I was arguing against is strict specialization too early, specifically for a kid who (regardless of age in years) is still in the beginner stage of development.

What are you talking 'bout?!?! Rongen was very literal & specific that position specific training should be done as early as possible. He even said he was aware what Cruyff thought flies against conventional coaching & total football philosophies.
There is nothing Rongen said that was open to interpretation...
@NorthOaklandFC Man I guess I made myself sound more trash than I really was. I wasn't literally unable to pass (that would make me one of the Men's national team players) I just meant that in comparison to an attacking midfielder, my passing wasn't that good, so it made no sense for my coach to put me in that position. I mean, during El Clasico, would you put Daniel Alves in as a midfielder just because Ronaldo is bigger than him? That's basically what I got tired of. And I quit when I was 14
@Ecook0808
