It's a part yes, but, with the speed of players bursting through on goal, kicking a heavier ball from the hands, off the ground, drop kick, able to fist the ball in from a few yards out, keepers saving is almost a bonus. Angles can be covered etc a la soccer, but it's, literally a different ball game. Add in being a link player and the kick outs, it's much more than the ability to stop a ball going into the net
