عبارت انگلیسی

goal

معنی و توضیح

The word “goal,” in this podcast, means the act of a ball passing through a net or crossing a line so that the team wins a point: “In soccer, each goal is worth one point.” A “goal” is also the area where the ball has to be put to win a point: “In soccer, the goal is a large net that the goalkeeper stands in front of.” A “goalpost” is one of two metal posts that a ball must go between to score a point in football: “The player accidentally ran into the goalpost and hurt his head.” Outside of sports, a “goal” is an objective or something that a person or business wants to do: “Jenny’s goal is to become a doctor.” Or, “The company’s goal is to increase sales by 200% next year.”

Shandy: Oh, that player just hit my boyfriend! Did you see that? That was definitely a penalty.

Giuseppe: No, I didn’t. I was watching the goalie. The referee isn’t doing anything.

Shandy: I can’t believe it. Why isn’t the coach talking to that referee? I’m sure the other player deliberately kicked Fabio with his cleats.

Giuseppe: Hey, look! Fabio has the ball and he’s taking it all the way down the field. He shoots, he scores! That’s his second goal of the game.
