The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Yes, the kid was smaller, but he used his speed, strength and height to his advantage. All the defensive lineman had to do was get low and keep moving his feet. And he did neither, hitting the muscular kid at shoulder level.
At that point, you are just asking to be run over. At least attempt to use the size advantage and gobble him up; perhaps he gained a yard, but you still tackled him.
All the younger football/rugby players, use this video as an example because the bigger kid’s failure is stuff everyone should learn in fundamental tackling 101.
