Understand the basics of Penalty Shootout

Start Penalty Shootout by looking at the playing area and its controls. Score at least three of five penalties. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Identify the playing area and the controls you need. Look at what changes after your first action.

Take five penalty kicks in a solo shooting challenge.

Give this approach a try

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. 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. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Step by step

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

How to use the controls

Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

Follow the example

An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Notice the change in the playing area.

A mistake to avoid

The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Compare the situation with the worked example. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
