To reproduce
Spawn a goat
Wait for the goat to ram and block with a shield

Can confirm in 1.19.1. Just to make life easier and to take away the time of waiting for the goat to ram you, you can simply alter its NBT data through the use of the command below in order to make it ram you within a couple of seconds.
/execute as @e[type=minecraft:goat,limit=1,sort=nearest] run data modify entity @s Brain.memories."minecraft:ram_cooldown_ticks".value set value 1
