goal conceded
A goal scored in sports by the opposing team against one's own team.
Kurz vor Spielende kassierte die Heimmannschaft ein unglückliches Gegentor.
Shortly before the end of the match, the home team conceded an unlucky goal.
'Gegentor' (goal conceded) is made up of the preposition 'gegen' (against) and the noun 'Tor' (goal). So it describes a goal that was scored 'against' one's own team.
Die Abwehr konnte das Gegentor nicht verhindern.
The defense couldn't prevent the goal conceded.
When a team concedes a goal, the verbs typically used are 'kassieren' (to concede) or 'bekommen' (to get). The opposite is to 'verhindern' (prevent) a goal from being conceded.
Unsere Mannschaft hat in der letzten Minute ein Gegentor kassiert.
Our team conceded a goal in the last minute.
This word is used exclusively in sports, especially in team sports with goals, such as football/soccer, handball, or ice hockey.
Nach dem ersten Gegentor spielte die Mannschaft viel nervöser.
After the first goal conceded, the team played much more nervously.
