Field Goal (フィールドゴール Fīrudo Gōru) is an arcade game released in 1979 by Taito Corporation. It is a clone of the game Breakout, where the player must use the rotary knob to control a paddle and hit the ball into the red, yellow and blue helmets on the screen. Each time a row of helmets is cleared out, a new row will appear in its place. If the player hits the orange area towards the top of the screen, it will decrease the size of the player's paddle. Sometimes a football player will appear, and if the ball hits him, the player will earn bonus points. The game was ported to the PlayStation 2 in 2007 as part of Taito Memories II Gekan.
