How can i "get past the goalie"??
Any tips will be helpful!

im a goalie and i help you out. the intimidate trick deos work on weaker goalies but to get past the elite goalie is to analyse everything they do like when they go to catch the ball how they dive their goalie position is the most important thing to analyse it will be easy to score if the goalie is out of position rather than in position. it is also important to know their reflexes, speed, and hieght. many goalie are good at different things lik im good at stopping breakaways but my diving sucks. little things like that can determine if you score

Whenever I went to score I would just kind of charge - scare the goalie a bit as if I wasn't going to stop and then put all the force and power I have into an awesome kick.
Although I LOVE what Alin had to say - he had some pretty awesome advice. I just thought I'd share what I've done before.
It's always good to intimidate the other team - they get scared of you and although the goalie is usually the player who can handle that "fear" the best because they're used to soccer balls and such coming at them - it will still work sometimes.
Other than the kind of charge/intimidate method I suggest doing what Alin says.

Well if you are talking about a one on one situation, I can think of three general ways off the top of my head.
1. Dribble... the obvious one. Let the keeper come forward a bit and then dribble to one side or the other if you are able to. Alternatively run straight at him/her and then make a move in full run. These are damn hard to do though normally.
2. Pass feint. Turn your body to one side, as though you are about to pass to another attacker. When the goalie reacts, move in the other direction. This would necessitate a player backing you up of course (if the goalie does not react, then pass the ball and let the other person score).
3. Shoot feint. One of the easiest and most effective if done right. Pretend to shoot, but make it believable putting your hips, shoulders, etc. into it. At the last moment just tap the ball forward or a bit to the side.
Remember most goalies will try to go down at or near your feet, and they will try to cut your angle to the goal by moving forward. This makes them a little immobile once they have committed their line of action (since it’s pretty hard to change direction once you are hunched down trying to cover the low angles). Most good strikers are very very cool under pressure, and they are very aware of the exact moment when the keeper is committed.
Good luck.
