For this minigame, the group will stay in their teams. The game is a basic penalty shootout, but the player will have to shoot first time whilst the ball is moving in to them. I, the coach, will feed the ball into the box, and players will sit right of the goal if they score, and left of the goal if they miss. The game will progess through the rounds, via shooting with their weak foot, using a special move, or volleying/heading the ball to try and score. The game will continue until one player is left, and this player will be the winner.
1. Ensure the head gets over the ball when taking a shot.
2. Ensure the shot goes on target, and beats the goalkeeper.
