This article is about the 1989 NES video game. For the 1992 SNES video game, see Goal! Two. For the unrelated 1993 game, see Dino Dini's Goal. For the upcoming free-to-play game, see Goals (video game).
The game has five modes: World Cup, Tournament, League, Shoot Competition, Asian Cup and Vs. Mode. The object of the game is the same as in real football; one team must score more goals than the other to win.
When playing World Cup League or Tournament mode Asian mode with two players, the players can either play on the same team or against each other.
Jaleco followed the game with several sequels and localizations, including Goal! Two for the NES (titled Goal! in the North American SNES version, and retitled Super Goal! for the European release), and Super Goal! 2. In 1993, Jaleco published Tose's Game Boyport of Goal!, which Tose adapted from their Japanese Game Boy release J-Cup Soccer.
