The problem isn't even about the supernatural stuff, even normal soccer anime would've been great, Hino (or whoever is behind Ares and Orion behind the scenes) just didn't know how to make Ares and Orion, there are countless things that are bad or doesn't make any sense, and the low budget and the poor animation made it even worse.

Examples of great normal soccer animes: Days TV, Area no Kishi, Aoki Densetsu Shoot and Captain Tsubasa (although there are abnormal things as the series progress)
