Goal

Published 2000

A Soccer card game. 96 action cards contain offensive tactics on one end and corresponding defensive tactics on the other. The cards are oriented in the hand differently depending on whether you are the attacker or the defender. 3 Cards depict the field and 1 card depicts the player in possession. The offense chooses an attacking strategy (card) and the defense must play the appropriate defending strategy (card) or the ball gets moved down field. When in goal range a number of cards are compared and icons totaled to determine if the shot is good. 10 optional advanced strategy cards can come into play to make the game more challenging and exciting.
