Introduction
🔹A shot on target is a shot that is on the net. Woodwork shots are not considered shots on target. A shot on target must be either saved by the goalkeeper or a goal. A shot on target blocked by a field player is a blocked shot.
🔹A shot off-target is a shot that is not on the net, be it on woodwork (independently on whether the ball lands back into the pitch or goes out of bounds) or outside the goal.
🔹A blocked shot is a shot, on the net or not, that is blocked by a field player, usually a defending player.

The shot workflow can be initiated from a CORNER or a FREE KICK as well. During the shot workflow, the button will remain lit up with the team color.
2️⃣ Select the shot taker (Player). From the list of players of the attacking team, select who took the shot. The player list will be greyed out before this step. The list of players will become white and the "Select Shot Taker" message will appear at the bottom.
