Getting started
Step
When you load in, a menu appears where you choose your free kick position before anything else. Each position has a different distance and angle to the goal, so your first few shots are really about learning how the controls feel.
- Open the menu choose any free kick position you want to start from.
- Check power and angle adjust both before you hit the shoot button.
- Take the shot watch where the ball goes relative to the goalkeeper.
- Skip orange or red menu items those positions are currently unavailable, so leave them alone.
Shooting tips that actually help
TipsThe AI goalkeeper is set to amateur mode, so it can be beaten with good technique — but it will still stop simple shots aimed straight at the center. Repeating shots from the same position is one of the fastest ways to learn the goalkeeper's patterns.
- Aim for the corners of the goal frame rather than the middle — corners are harder for the keeper to reach.
- Too little power and the keeper catches it easily; too much and the ball sails over the bar.
- Switch between your left and right foot — each produces a different ball curve.
Using the replay feature
StepAfter every shot you can pull up footage of what just happened. Use it after both goals and misses — a successful shot tells you what angle and power to repeat, and a miss shows you exactly where the ball went wrong.
- Tap the replay button footage of your previous shot starts playing immediately.
- On a goal note the power level and angle so you can reproduce the shot.
- On a miss watch the ball's path and the keeper's movement to find what went wrong.
How the leaderboard resets work
TableThe global leaderboard tracks scores across three time windows at the same time.
| Hourly reset | the leaderboard clears every hour. |
| Daily reset | the leaderboard clears every day. |
| Weekly reset | the leaderboard clears every week. |

Common questions
FAQWhy can't I select some menu options?
Items shown in orange or red text are currently unavailable because the game is still in development. Just ignore them and choose from the positions that are fully selectable.
How do I rank on the leaderboard?
Score as many goals as possible from your chosen position. Because the leaderboard resets every hour, every day, and every week, there are constant fresh opportunities to climb.
Does switching feet actually matter?
Shooting with your left foot versus your right foot produces a different curve on the ball. Practicing both gives you more options in the same position.
Is the goalkeeper difficulty fixed?
The goalkeeper AI is currently set to amateur mode. The game is still being developed, but for now it is at that level.
