  32. 32. Q. In association football , X is a questionable goal, usually involving uncertainty as to whether or not a ball crossed the goal line. X can be awarded without the ball ever crossing the goal- line and, conversely, the term can be applied when the ball crosses the goal-line unseen by the referee. In an attempt to combat this issue, new rules allowing goal-line technology were passed by IFAB in 2012 and used in the FIFA World Cup. Perhaps the most famous incident relating X is the Wembley Goal scored by England striker Geoff Hurst in the 1966 FIFA WC Final against West Germany. Give X. Games & Sports
