Making selections and moves
Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Use the control method described here for this activity. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
A useful example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.
Avoid this misunderstanding
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
