Often the most exciting bouts in a match don't involve any actual goals. There are the near misses, the attacks that are beautifully and heroically saved, the ball that looks like it's found the back of the net, with the whole stadium baiting its breath, only to clip the bar and veer off behind the goal. Some of the tackling and defending is like watching a dance, or a duel. The goals are really a very small part of the actual game.
