He runs very direct and had a big lower body in his frame.

That didn't look right. If the defending team has to release a tackled player the attacking team shouldn't then be able to drive them forward.
They’ve come in to support their man, they’re not obliged to let him go like the tacklers are

How can a team actually legally defend in that situation?

If Sotutu's knees are on the ground (a tackle) he shouldn't be able get up again.

If they had realeased him, they wouldn’t have had the opportunity for a drive.

Agreed. He can be driven forward, but if he gets to his feet he must release the ball first.
