| Phrase | goal |
| Text | 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." |
