What does "own goal" mean in football?

The meaning of "own goal" is easy to understand, that is, the player made a mistake and kicked the ball into his own goal.

The own goal can be regarded as a proper term on the football field, also called killing the ball. It originated from the English word "own goal", which means "the ball that entered one's own goal", and later fans called it "own goal".

The goal of own goal is generally divided into two situations:

1. When the attacking player shoots or passes the ball in the game, the defending player unconsciously touches the ball and kicks it in, then the goal is counted as the attacking player's.

2. If the attacking player consciously blocks when shooting or passing the ball, but kicks the ball into his own goal, then the goal will be counted on the defending player.

From the above two situations, it should be seen that although they are both their own goals, the calculation of the number of goals is different. Some goals were scored by opponents when they scored their own goals, as were the own goals in many major competitions. It was this own goal that led to his own defeat and directly sent his opponent into the ranks of winners.

There are three established rules about own goal in football: 1. Our players kicked the ball into their own goal;

2. The ball shot by the attacker has deviated from the goal direction, but the ball just hit the defender and refracted into the net during the flight, which is regarded as an own goal scored by the defender;

3. A foul ball can't be scored directly. Throwing an own goal directly is not a goal, and it is certainly not an own goal.

In addition to these established rules, since any accident may happen on the court, since 2008, UEFA has issued detailed rules for judging own goals, which have been adopted in the Champions League and other events.

Rules for judging goals by your own goals.

1. If the attacker kicks off and goes straight to the goal, even if the defender touches the ball, it should be considered as the shooter's goal.

The ball kicked by the attacker deviated from the goal direction. At this time, the defender touches the ball and refracts it into the net. This goal is regarded as the defender's own goal.

No matter whether the own goal is counted on the offensive player or the defensive player, it can't be counted on the scorer list.

"Own goal" is a classic expression of own goal, which only exists in China's football commentary. To put it simply, the player was excited, kicked the ball in the wrong place and kicked it into his own goal. Although this situation sounds funny, there are actually many situations. Many international football players often make some seemingly low-level mistakes because they are nervous on the court, and own goals are very common.
