Practice with a purpose
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
The objective of a round
Score at least three of five penalties. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.
Making your moves
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
Using the playing area
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Look at the feedback after the action.
An example to follow
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Choose a deliberate next step.
A useful caution
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
