A Korean player scored a goal in the 81st minute of the match against France and sent his team to the top of the group. I wonder how to ask the question as to when the goal was scored.

When was the goal scored? At what time during the match was the scored? At what minute was the goal scored?

Please help me.

Normally, the first one. You could use the second one if needing to speak/write formally. Never the last, but you could say "in which minute was the goal scored".

Hume said that if we had perfect or complete descriptive knowledge of reality, we could not, by reasoning, derive a single valid "ought".
