Bulge in the onion bag is a vivid British football expression for scoring a goal — 'the onion bag' being old slang for the net. When a striker smashes the ball into the back of the net and the mesh billows out dramatically, that's the bulge. The phrase is pure football commentator energy: colourful, expressive, and quintessentially British. You're most likely to hear it on a Saturday afternoon sports show or shouted in a pub when the home side finally scores.
