Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your objective

Score at least three of five penalties. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.

How a round unfolds

  1. Aim inside the goal.
  2. Shoot away from the moving keeper.
  3. A save or outside shot misses.
  4. Finish all five.

Your inputs

Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Put the rules into context

An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.

Pay attention to this rule

The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
