Attempts

Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!

Alan tipped the goal over on its spot, then barricaded its entrance with several things including Linda the Cow, a wheel and a piano, as well as covering the ball with a bathtub. After initially attempting to deflect the ball into the goal, Alex ended up using some of the items Alan had barricaded the entrance with to prop the goal up, making it easier for him to score. Alex scored a goal in 9 minutes and 47 seconds, so Alan received 4 points.
Desiree covered the goal in a layer of clingfilm, but the ball went immediately through the goal. She received 1 point.
Guz decided to move the spot and the football into the house, barricading himself in the house. After Alex kicked down the door, he decided to move the spot and football back, causing Guz to have to try and defend the goal. Alex scored a goal in 6 minutes, so Guz received 3 points.
Morgana turned the goal around on its spot, then measured 12 yards from the ball. After initially attempting to deflect the ball off the fence, Alex started to prop the goal up with the caravan's fence, but Morgana kept removing the fence. Alex ended up cutting a hole in the net of the fence so it could score a goal. Alex scored a goal in 10 minutes and 5 seconds, so Morgana received 5 points.
Victoria tried to snooker Alex by placing a barrel and gargoyle in front of the barrel, thinking Alex wouldn't be able to kick the ball over it. Victoria ended up watching the ball roll into the goal, and received 2 points.
