If you listen to the description in the video, they consider position to be obtained when a defender has both feet in position, not when the bodies finish moving. In that case, they were there before the offensive player left the floor. The remaining lateral movement didn't include foot movement but the straightening of the bodies.

In the US, I don't think anyone interprets position like that. We usually look to see if the defender had their torso in the path AND both fee on the floor.....making this a block.
