Over one season, 6 players scored 0 goals, 4 players scored 1 goal and 2 players scored 2 goals. What is the modal number of goals?

Explication

More players finished the season on 0 goals than on any other number, so the value recorded most often is 0. Answering 6 reports how many players were in that group, and rejecting 0 on the grounds that it looks like nothing is also wrong, because scoring no goals is a genuine recorded result for six players.
