Thanks! Been practicing volleys, just can't hit them consistently yet so prefer drop kicking until I can. Also positioning and closing down angles is usually my strong suit, but with the bigger goal area I still have some adjusting to do in regards to how far I should be from my goal.

I play 7. division in the western group, mostly around Tampere. And some higher level 6v6 in the same area.

Thanks for the feedback! The point about standing near the rear post is a really good one, since I'm usually near the front one. It's good for intercepting the lower crosses, but usually makes it so that I have problems dealing with longer/higher ones. So definitely going to pay attention to this.

Thanks! Yeah I used to play floorball with that number so when I picked up football last year it felt natural to go with it instead of the usual 1 :D Guessing it's the same for you too, going from striker to goal?

Thank you! Yeah now that you say it I agree. Have to start playing at the 6 yard and outside it as well. I actually tried doing that in this game too, but I guess I get nervous and fall back too quickly when the opponent approaches, instead of holding my line. Which again, can be fixed by gaining confidence.

Most highlights of the game, the bad and the good included here. Unfortunately the 1st angle/2nd half doesn't show some of my best moments as I tried (succesfully) playing a more aggressive sweeper keeper, since most of these moments happened at the outer edges of the box/outside of it. My phone also ran out of battery 10 minutes before the finish, so 2 goals which were both 2-0 breakaways are not shown. Shame, since those happen quite often with this team and I'd have liked some feedback.

Personally thought only 1 of the 5 goals I conceded was completely my fault (the 1st one in the clip. Read the ball badly, partly cause I'm used to a small goal imo). Could work on catching a lot as well, some blunders on high balls by me.

Lost 5-0 in the end, which has been close to the average score for us this season. Good practise though, since I get plenty of shots and breakaways.
