Sprinting becomes slower than walking

I have had it now multiple times where I or my opponent gives a through ball, where i'm much further ahead than the opponent behind me, and when i'm sprinting like 5-10m close to the ball, my players (93+ pace) sprints even slower then walking. Its like the times slows down. My player still does make the sprinting movement, but there's no way that's sprinting. My opponents players move normal and fast at that time.
