Bring this focus to a round

What you are aiming for
Score at least three of five penalties. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Making your moves
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
How your actions work
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.
Put the rules into context
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Look for the relevant detail.
Keep this in mind
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
