Could you explain how "would" works in this sentence?
Q: What does "register" mean in football? United failed to register a shot on target.
A: To register a shot on target means to have a shot on target. In this example, United have not troubled the keeper - they have not had any shots on target. Another way of saying 'on target' would be 'on goal' - the team did not register a shot on goal.
Here the second speaker uses "would", could you tell me what it means?
