Russian term or phrase: Результативные атаки
За полтора часа футбола вы увидите 3 результативные атаки. За 40 минут баскетбола их будет 330.

Я сейчас перевела так: "During a one and a half hour football match you will see 3 scoring attacks. 40 minutes of basketball will bring 330 accurate shots."

agree


Explanation:
I think "scoring attacks" is correct; regarding BB, I
would just say "scores", although 330 sounds way too many.

neutral  Libero_Lang_Lab: a drive is a particular type of shot in football/soccer. goals can be scored in many different ways...

  -> true enough, my thinking is tainted with American football terminology.

goals (!)


Explanation:
That is how it is likely to appear in context!

In football you're likely to see three goals in 90 minutes, whereas in b-ball, 40 minutes of play can produce as many as 330 scores.

NB an accurate shot and a scoring shot are not necessarily the same - either in football or in b-ball.

successful attempts on goal / converted chances


Explanation:
these are two turns of phrase often used in football journalism... both meaning "goals"

In support of Joe's answer:


Explanation:
"Scoring drives" is the most proper term in the US. Not "attacks," not "attempts on goal" - drives!
