Penalty Shootout: learn through an example

Take five penalty kicks in a solo shooting challenge.
Build familiarity through play
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.
Understand the aim
Score at least three of five penalties. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.
Step by step
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use one clear input at a time.
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. Read the matching step again.
Avoid this misunderstanding
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Check the rule before repeating the action. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
