How do you kick a field goal in football?

To kick a field goal in football, the kicker lines up behind the line of scrimmage and aims to kick the ball through the goalposts located at the back of the end zone. The holder places the ball on the ground, and the kicker then approaches the ball and kicks it with precision and power using their foot. The goal is to send the ball through the uprights to score points for the team.
