See how the rules apply
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. Keep the controls nearby.
Check this before moving on
The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
