Marcus Rashford has already given Westham United a goal in the 38th minute for Manchester United. There is still half time to play. In the remaining half if Manchester United goalkeeper is able to stop the balls coming towards them and if Manchester United's other players are able to pass the ball well and give Westham United another goal then they will surely win today.
what was he trying to say in that bolded part ?
It's a translation thing, I know that from our Moldavian co-workers, in some languages to score a goal is also "to do" a goal so here to give a goal to the other team is to score a point, but of course, in translation it loses that meaning and it just becomes a really confusing text.
And this is again one thing that shows how much of a football fan some people are when they don't even realize what they are saying and how this sounds.
It's the same as saying if Arsenal scores the fifth goal against Nottingham Forest, Arsenal will win the game; predicting known outcome only makes him look stupid,Lol.
Reminds of a football player interviewed in our league, freshly after the game in which they lost 0-2, he said that if the other team didn't score those two goals and we have scored at least once we would have won. No shit Sherlock!
