As far as I can tell, unless you've anticipated it and built a robot to deal with it (a high-traction drive train and a sideways scoring mechanism, for example... or being able to score from both the front and the side of the fender), you're going to have a hard time dealing with a defensive robot that can prevent you from getting to your scoring position.

I'm sure people more clever/insightful than I am can come up with other solutions, too.
