How to Draw a Soccer Goal

The game of soccer dates from second-century China. It started out as a military physical training exercise, and a version of the game was played on the emperor's birthday. The game has remained basically the same all this time, and is considered the most popular sport in the world. If you're a fan, you might want to show it by drawing a soccer goal.

1. 

   Draw a slanted rectangle for the basic shape of the goal.
