Goal scoring is the act of successfully getting the ball into the opponent's net in sports like soccer or hockey. It is a key objective for teams, as each goal contributes to their overall score. Players use various techniques, such as shooting, heading, or deflecting the ball, to achieve this. In soccer, a goal is worth one point, while in hockey, it also counts as one point. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins. Effective goal scoring often involves teamwork, strategy, and skillful execution by players.
