In football/soccer, does "to make a goal" have the same meaning as "to score a goal"?
What about "to get a goal"? Does it have the same meaning as "to concede a goal"?
Thank you.
@paok1970,
"Make a goal", "score a goal" and "get a goal" are pretty much the same thing. "Concede a goal" means your team gives up a goal, so it is the opposite of "make a goal".
@paok1970,
Not necessarily, only one player can score a goal, but many can be involved in making a goal such as the player who crosses to the goal scorer.
Engineer is right about conceding goals though.
