20 collocations with the word "goal"

from Espresso English Podcast

In soccer, we don't say "make a goal," we say "score a goal." Outside of sports, we don't say "follow a goal," but we do say "pursue a goal" or "work towards a goal." Learn 20 collocations with the word "goal"!   "Collocations" are the common combinations of words that are frequently used by native speakers. These typical combinations of words can be hard to learn because often there are no rules that can help you know which words to use together - these expressions simply exist because people commonly use them in that way! However, you can learn collocations quickly and with the audio e-book 1000 English Collocations in 10 Minutes a Day. Each lesson presents common collocations on a specific topic, and includes a practice exercise.
