The solo player attempts to reach the goal line without being tackled by a rival. They have three speed boosts they can use to try and outmaneuver the rivals. If a rival attempts a tackle and misses, they fall down and lose some time. The rivals win if one of them successfully tackles the solo player or if time runs out.

Ending

If the solo player is victorious, he/she will spike the football, and strike a victory pose, while the rivals groan.
