Definition:
 
line where goalposts stand: in games such as football and field hockey, the line where goalposts are positioned and over which the ball must pass or be carried to make a score. A touchdown can be scored anywhere along the line, but to score in soccer and field hockey circumstances the ball also has to pass between the posts.
