Goalposts if he was still some way off.

Goalpost if he was just about to hit one of them.

I would like to confirm. So the ball hit the goalpost because there are two goalposts. Did I get you correctly?

Many thanks.

Doesn't goalpost/s depend on the sport?

My apologies. I was referring to soccer.

Your question started "David was heading for the goalposts..."

Now you mention a ball. So what do you mean? That David "headed" the ball towards goal? Because "David was heading for the goalposts" just means he was going there.

Sorry if I misunderstood.

I should have been sorry. Please accept my apologies.

If it was OmSigDavid the goalposts probably aren't there anymore - he shot them down if they were in his way.
