A soccer goal is a structure used in the game of soccer to score points. It consists of two vertical posts and a horizontal crossbar, forming a rectangular frame. The standard dimensions for a soccer goal are 8 feet high and 24 feet wide. The objective of the game is to get the soccer ball into the goal, which earns the team one point. Goals are typically located at each end of the soccer field. When a player successfully kicks the ball into the goal, the referee signals a score, and the game resumes with a kickoff from the center of the field.
