“In life as in football, you won’t go far, unless you know where the goalposts are”

This quote implies that your goals should always be clear to you. That you should already know what you want to do in life. For example what i want i wanna be when i grow up. And what i want to do with my life. I should have goals to achieve. Like being in college soccer and getting a scholarship.  Graduating for high school and then off of a college. You should always have your goals in mind.
