In the sport of maxiball, in which the objective is to score more goals than the opposing team, each team member faces off against one member of the other team. The coach for the Panthers predicts victory over the Cougars in an upcoming match between these two maxiball teams.
The chief reason for the coach’s prediction is that the Cougars’ best defensive player will not be defending against Fonsica, who is the Panthers’ highest scoring player.
Which of the following, if true, would cast most doubt on the prediction made by the Panthers’ coach?
(A) The Panthers have defeated fewer opponents than the Cougars this year.
(B) Fonsica is the Panther’s best defensive player.
(C) The Panthers’ best defensive player will not be defending against the Cougars’ highest scoring player.
(D) Fonsica is not the Panthers’ best defensive player.
(E) The Cougars’ highest scoring player will not be defending against Fonsica.

Bunuel egmat karishma Eventhough I was able to arrive at the answer Option C. But, I would like to know how the other options are wrong. I greatly appreciate your inputs and time.
Initially trying to understand about maxiball, and its rules took some time for me. Was it like a soccer game, or a penalty shootout. Where each gets a chance to score and defend. This thought came to my mind after seeing the options.

(A) The Panthers have defeated fewer opponents than the Cougars this year. Incorrect: this is irrelevant. Even if this is the case, this is not the chief reason based on which the coach of the Panther's team has made their statement.
(B) Fonsica is the Panther’s best defensive player. Incorrect: this contradicts the coach's statement as Fonsica is the team scorer, not the defender.
(C) The Panthers’ best defensive player will not be defending against the Cougars’ highest scoring player. Correct: this option follows the logical consistency of the Panther's coach. The prediction of the coach relies on "Cougars’ best defensive player will not be defending against Fonsica"; accordingly if Panthers' best defensive player does not defned against the Cougar's highest scorer it negates the rationale behind the coach's predication.
(D) Fonsica is not the Panthers’ best defensive player. Incorrect: even if that is the case it does not provide any doubt on the prediction.
(E) The Cougars’ highest scoring player will not be defending against Fonsica. Incorrect: logical inconsistency here.
(B) Fonsica is the Panther’s best defensive player. Incorrect: this contradicts the coach's statement as Fonsica is the team scorer, not the defender.
