How to play Penalty Shootout
Read the aim of Penalty Shootout, then make your first move. Score at least three of five penalties. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Check the rule that explains your first action. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Take five penalty kicks in a solo shooting challenge.
Build a steady rhythm
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. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Score at least three of five penalties. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Take a moment to understand the current position.
Step by step
- Aim inside the goal.
- Shoot away from the moving keeper.
- A save or outside shot misses.
- Finish all five.
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.
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. Verify the rule before continuing.
Watch out for this
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Check the rule before repeating the action. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
