[Sakuma doesn't need to react consciously. His body just moves, catching the ball on the inside of his foot and guiding it back to the ground in a perfect position to be passed back. But instead he dribbles into the field a little, positioning himself to shoot. He's never been a striker, but since it's only him and Kidou, if they want to do more than just pass back and forth, they'll have to play all the positions themselves.
He doesn't wait for Kidou, and Sakuma doesn't stop running before he actually kicks the ball -- instead he plants his leading foot, using the other to sweep the ball around in a turn, then shifts his weight to that other foot to use his leading one to send the ball not back to Kidou but directly into the net.]
