choose the correct answer.
___________ no puede bloquear el balón.
el partido
el portero
el lanzador
la pelota

Explanation:

Translate and analyze the sentence

The sentence is: "\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ no puede bloquear el balón."
Translation: "\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ cannot block the ball."

Evaluate the options

• El partido (The game/match): A match cannot block a ball.
• El portero (The goalkeeper): A goalkeeper is the player whose job is to block the ball, but the sentence says "no puede bloquear" (cannot block). However, grammatically and contextually in sports vocabulary, "el portero" is the subject associated with blocking the ball (e.g., if he is out of position or unable to make the save). Let's look at the other options.
• El lanzador (The pitcher/thrower): A pitcher/thrower throws the ball, they do not block it.
• La pelota (The ball): The ball itself cannot block the ball.

Looking at standard Spanish sports vocabulary exercises, "El portero no puede bloquear el balón" (The goalkeeper cannot block the ball) is a logically and grammatically coherent sentence describing a play where the goalkeeper fails to block/save the ball.

Answer:

• El partido
• El portero (Correct answer)
• El lanzador
• La pelota
