Arguably, a properly constructed set of 11 robots should be able to pass the ball to somewhere about half-way down the field fairly quickly and unstoppably, and would then proceed to shoot in exactly the right corner of the net from halfway down the pitch. Blocking shots taken at the robot goal (if such a thing ever happened) would also be a piece of cake given the ease with which we can already program robots to catch things thrown at them.
