Due to the laws of the game, very special and different from football, the role of the goalkeeper is also different. He learns to move with the game by staying in line with the ball, not to be glued on the goal line and also how to participate in the attack, be proficient with his feet and develop quick reflexes. The essential characteristics of a goalkeeper are: courage, concentration, confidence, speed reaction, flexibility, balance, strength and power.
