A useful example
An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Compare the situation with the worked example. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
