The defender is only allowed to defend inside the zone. The 2 outside players can choose to pass from outside or inside the zone.
The 2 players outside the area are looking to create a passing opportunity to get the ball to each other (passing through or around the defender).

The weak spot of the defender is when the ball is moved past their outside of left foot.
