1 and 2 are the best. 3 suffers from an awkward crop and a cutoff foot. 4 is awesome, but needs to be cropped much much tighter. The last doesn't work for me.

Fair amount of "negative space" in these. Classic is #2, crop it to portrait and fill the frame with the players. As it is, the photo does not draw you into the action because its diminished i.e. being only a small part of the presented frame. Similar issue in #4, the key action is on the left, players on right add nothing. Crop it to fill a frame with the action on the left.
#3 ball cut off, body parts cut off, IMHO, not a keeper.
#5 is ok but action displayed focuses on the backside of the player, as a general rule you want to capture faces, ball and action.
Action caught in #1, 2 & 4 is good, with tighter crops each will be significantly stronger.
