How to score
To score, you can only shoot from the coloured scoring zones.
Roll the required number for the square you are in.
The best places to shoot require the lowest scores so the probability of scoring improves as you get closer to goal.
Distance shots might need a bit of luck...
The probability of scoring is based on the Expected Goals method used in the Professional game and on TV.
Should you shoot? Or pass to a teammate?
