I am not sure about my findings on several player's abilities, some testes are done on it but not only rely on the "word explanation" in game.
for GK:
GK awareness - response to make a save, actually the reflexes;
GK reflexes - movement of GK to the moving ball before the shoot;
for CB/CF:
(actually it share the same motion engine that every abilities reveal same effect on every players, no matter a gk or on-field players)
(Just edit the below abilities to a onfield players around 70-90, the below result is revealed)
GK awareness - response trying to block the shoot by a jump or sliding;
GK clearing - where the ball bounce when hit a defender, if at 40 it seem passing through straight, if ard 60 it seem bounce to the side, if ard 90 it seem bounce forward
GK reflexes - reponse/movement of CB/CF in penalty area to the cross; especially the marking tightingness of a defending player (when out of possession and before u control that player, he will trend to mark the rival CF more quickly; subsequently u control the player, then DF awareness/ball winning/agressive govern)
GK coverage - defending area, especially the use of arm movement of a defender in 1 on 1 situation
The test below
Real Madrid vs Barcelona
1st half
2nd half

highlight keypoint:
- level top player
- game speed +1
- those defenders ard 70-90 gk abilities, they are quiet active in penalty area to cross/shoot
