A useful example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
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.
