I have found that I don't care much about the cheap goals - I think it is my duty to prevent them from happening and if I am giving my opponent that same opportunity over and over then I shall suffer. But the ridiculous defensive pressure in the open field is downright irritating and unrealistic. Too easy to to get mobbbed and robbed of the ball. Doesn't seem you can protect it with your body well enough. Much worse is because the short goalie kick after an end line out of bounds is default passed to the same backer over and over the defender simply runs up on that player before the whistle is blown and pickpockets it; you can get rid of it quickly but it has to be a weak pass and the ball is ripe for the taking. I wish Konami would fix this. The only safe thing to do is boom the kick out of there but that results in a turnover more times than not. I will try Montanaros' suggestion to long kick to the wing.
