A striker is a forward player whose primary role is to score goals for their team. They are often positioned closest to the opponent's goal.
A goalkeeper is the player positioned in front of the goal whose main responsibility is to prevent the opposing team from scoring by saving shots on goal.
A shootout is a method used to determine the winner of a match that ends in a draw after regulation time and extra time, where players take penalty kicks against the opposing goalkeeper.
