Easier to defend yes but the “law of averages” usually and eventually works in their favour. I’ve been playing this game long enough and I’m good enough to recognize and prevent these goals but certain players do these to perfection that just makes them to hard to prevent sometimes. Some of these goals are just over powering and especially if they’re playing with teammates and have a second go to goal to switch to. Having an AI goalie doesn’t help either because they’re so unpredictable.
I’ve played with players and teams that ONLY attempted these goals and even when easily winning games with them just wasn’t fun. It is what it is so I just move onto the next game and hope I’m not playing with and or against players that exploit these goals.
It’s rare but when you do get a game full of 6’s with all 12 capable players playing their positions properly and not using exploits this game does play very well and is fun.
