Simon is a quick full-back with strong playmaking and crossing qualities. He progressed play effectively using one- and two-touch combinations, frequently beating the opposition’s pressure through sharp changes of direction, quick decision-making, and precise passing. He also contributed defensively by reading the game well, intercepting forward passes and providing cover for his teammates.
Alvin Nordin (Helsingborgs IF), right winger born 2007.

He showcased his dribbling skills with an excellent move on the edge of the penalty area to create a chance for his teammate Johansson.

He demonstrated good ball-striking ability, particularly when shooting first time from outside the penalty area.
