From the start of a round
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
The controls to know
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
Work through an example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.
An important reminder
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. A different version of the game may use a different rule. 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.
