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. 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. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
