I'm not sure if I agree with this. the game of soccer and breakaway are very similar, but they are also very different. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason why shots in soccer are not scored generally from midfield is because of human capability. It seems unreasonable to expect a person to kick a soccer ball 150 feet accurately into a goal, but I can't imagine getting a robot to score from 27 feet will be as difficult. Especially this year with vision tracking, teams will be able to "lock on" to goals to increase accuracy.
