In November 2022, Shokhan Nooraldin Salihi scored 15 goals in the match of Al-Hilal against Sama in the 2022\u201323 Saudi Women's Premier League.[1] In this match, Al-Hilal beat Sama 18\u20130.

Most Goals in a Season in All Competitions Record [Top 10 Players]

Players who hit the back of the net regularly are worth their weight in gold in football, and are usually the fan favourites in any side.

\n\n\n\n

While some strikers might be satisfied with a 20-goal haul in any season, the real greats of the game set their sights just a little higher.

\n\n\n\n

The likes of Ronaldo and Messi may tower above the mere mortals of the game, but how many goals have they and other top players managed to net in a single season.

\n\n\n\n

With Erling Haaland ripping up record books in England, what kind of numbers should he be aiming for?

\n\n\n\n\n\n

NOTE: Erling Haaland has scored 52 goals in 51 appearances (as of 2 June 2023).

\n\n\n\n

Most Goals in a Season in All Competitions [Top 10]

\n\n\n\n

1. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – 2011/12 – 73 Goals

\n\n\n\n

Messi had a majestic 2011/12 season, which included scoring a La Liga-record 50 goals in only 37 games and finding the net 14 times in the Champions League. However, both achievements were in vain, as Barca finished second in the league and only reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

\n\n\n\n

2= Ferenc Deak (Szentlorinci) – 1945/46 – 66 Goals

\n\n\n\n

You might not have heard of him or the Hungarian club he played for at the time, but Deak notched up an amazing 66 league goals in 1945/46 from only 34 matches, a record for goals scored in a European League season.

\n\n\n\n

2= Gerd Muller (Bayern Munich) – 1972/73 – 66 Goals

\n\n\n\n

Legendary German striker Muller has gone down in history as one of the best penalty-box poachers ever. Evidence of this came in 1972/73, when he scored 36 league goals, seven in the German Cup, 12 in the League Cup and 11 in the European Cup.

\n\n\n\n

4. Dixie Dean (Everton) – 1927/28 – 63 Goals

\n\n\n\n

Dean was one of the greatest goalscorers of his generation, and his exploits during the 1927/28 English league season may never be bettered. (Over to you Mr Haaland.)

\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n

Only 21 years old at the time, Dean netted a hat-trick on the final day of the season to reach a staggering 60 league goals, to go with three in the FA Cup.

\n\n\n\n

5. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) – 2014/15 – 61 Goals

\n\n\n\n

Ronaldo\u2019s first appearance on this list is helped by the fact he scored 48 La Liga goals from only 35 appearances in 2014/15, and another 10 in the Champions League. He also contributed 17 assists for teammates.

\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

6= Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) – 2011/12 – 60 Goals

\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s that man Ronaldo again. Three years before notching 61 goals, he managed to net 60 times in 2011/12, including 46 league goals that helped Real Madrid to the title. He also successfully tucked away 12 penalties during his phenomenal season.

\n\n\n\n

6= Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – 2012/13 – 60 Goals

\n\n\n\n

Lionel Messi matched his great rival\u2019s 60-goal total the following season, and also found the net 46 times in La Liga from only 32 appearances, helping Barcelona to become Spanish champions.

\n\n\n\n

8= Ferenc Deak (Ferencvaros) – 1948/49 – 59 Goals

\n\n\n\n

The Hungarian striker proved he wasn\u2019t a one-season wonder by racking up an amazing 59 league goals from 30 games in the 1948/49 season for Ferencvaros, his hometown team, helping them win the national championship by 11 points.

\n\n\n\n

8= Luis Suarez (Barcelona) – 2015/16 – 59 Goals

\n\n\n\n

He might be controversial, but there\u2019s no doubt about Luis Suarez\u2019s goal-scoring ability. He found the net 40 times in 35 La Liga appearances and 59 times in 53 games overall in the 2015/16 season, helping Barcelona to achieve a league and cup double.

\n\n\n\n

10. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – 2014/15 – 58 Goals

\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s fitting that Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player of all time, rounds off our list. The legendary Argentinian had yet another stunning season in 2014/15, scoring 43 league goals, five in the cup and 10 in the Champions League, a total of 58 goals in 57 games, as Barcelona achieved a domestic double and lifted their fifth Champions League.

With over 870 goals at club and international level combined, Cristiano Ronaldo is the top goalscorer of all time.
\n

In top-level association football competitions, 24 players have scored 500 or more goals over the course of their career in both club and international football, according to research by the IFFHS,[1] first published in 2007.[2] Taking into account competitions of all levels, 75 players have reached the milestone according to research by the RSSSF,[3] an organisation described by German newspaper Der Spiegel as a \"Wikipedia of football statistics\".[4] Hungarian Imre Schlosser was the first to reach the 500-goal mark, doing so in 1927 shortly before his retirement.[5] Eight players have accomplished the feat at a single club, among them Josef Bican (Slavia Prague), Jimmy Jones (Glenavon), Jimmy McGrory (Celtic), Lionel Messi (Barcelona), Gerd M\u00fcller (Bayern Munich), Pel\u00e9 (Santos), Fernando Peyroteo (Sporting CP), and Uwe Seeler (Hamburg).[6] Of these eight, Messi scored the most, with 672 goals between his debut in 2004 and his departure in 2021.[7]\n

FIFA, the international governing body of football, has never released a list detailing the highest goalscorers and does not keep official records;[8][9] in 2020, it recognised Bican, an Austrian-Czech dual international who played between the 1930s and the 1950s,[10] as the record scorer with an estimated 805 goals,[11][12] although CNN, the BBC, France 24, and O Jogo all acknowledge that Bican's tally includes goals scored for reserve teams and in unofficial international matches.[9][13][14][15] UEFA, the governing body for European football, ranks him as the leading all-time goalscorer in European top-flight leagues with 518 goals, narrowly ahead of Hungarian Ferenc Pusk\u00e1s.[16] The RSSSF credits Bican with 948 goals, a tally which includes goals scored in winter tournaments, as well as when selected to represent regional and city teams,[17] and the Football Association of the Czech Republic claims a total of 821.[18][19] Spanish newspapers Marca and Sport state that both Bican and Pel\u00e9 scored 762 goals.[20][21] Such is the difficulty for statisticians and media outlets to determine which goals to include that the topic has spurred controversy;[22][23] Bican once walked out of a gala held in his honour by the IFFHS after the organisation had excluded war-time goals from his tally, although it later recognised 229 goals he had scored during the period.[24]\n

Media outlets around the world such as Sky Sports, ESPN, and Globo Esporte argue that, for Brazilian forward Pel\u00e9 and players of his era, friendly matches were highly important fixtures and held more resonance, and the tallies accumulated should be included,[25][26][27] while journalist Hugh McIlvanney once described them as mere \"profit-making excursions\" that bore little \"relevance to Pel\u00e9's reality as a great player\",[28] and Jonathan Liew stated that many of the friendlies were \"against up-country teams or down-at-heel invitational sides\".[29] When Argentinian forward Messi was reported to have broken the record for most goals for a single club (644 for Spanish club Barcelona), Pel\u00e9's former club Santos denied the claim, releasing a statement saying 448 of Pel\u00e9's goals scored in friendlies had been uncounted,[30] and arguing that many of the goals came against \"the best teams of all time\",[31] statements Pel\u00e9 agreed with by publicly changing his overall tally to 1,283 on Instagram.[32] When reporting the statistics of Messi, Barcelona argued that because Bican and Pel\u00e9, as well as Erwin Helmchen and Abe Lenstra, among others, scored the majority of their goals in leagues which were not played at a national level, their tallies should be questioned and potentially not counted,[33] while goals scored during war-time, in lower-tiers and regional divisions, by players such as Bican, Ferenc De\u00e1k, Pusk\u00e1s, Seeler, M\u00fcller, T\u00falio Maravilha, and Robert Lewandowski, are also questioned.[34]\n

In 2021, Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo was reported to have broken the record when he scored his 760th goal,[35][36][37] although it was widely acknowledged it was impossible to quantify with certainty as statistics from previous generations are often disputed,[19][38][39][40][41][42] as highlighted by football journalist Jonathan Wilson and Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport's editor Ivan Zazzaroni, who recognised the possibility that German striker Helmchen had scored 981 goals.[17][43] Ronaldo himself addressed the issue, saying that \"the world has changed since then and football has changed as well, but this doesn't mean that we can just erase history according to our interests\".[44] There are other claims to the record; Guinness World Records credits Pel\u00e9 as the scorer of the \"most career goals\", with 1,279,[45] and Brazilian striker Rom\u00e1rio celebrated scoring what he claimed was his 1,000th goal in 2007 but later admitted his tally included friendly matches;[46] they are reported to have scored 767 and 772 goals, respectively,[19][47][48][49][50] with Pel\u00e9's total including one goal for the military team and nine goals for the state team of S\u00e3o Paulo at the State Team Championship.[51][52] The Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica notes that Brazilian Arthur Friedenreich is \"officially recognised\" by FIFA to have scored 1,329 goals,[53] although there is little evidence for, and no documentation of, this claim.[45][54] In March 2022, Ronaldo surpassed Bican's estimated tally of 805.[55][56]\n

Ranking the 50 Best Player Seasons in Soccer History

Thomas Atzenhoffer@socceratz\"X.comCorrespondent IINovember 15, 2012

Ranking the 50 Best Player Seasons in Soccer History

0 of 50

    Football is a team sport. However, without the great individuals of the game, there is no doubt that many of the greatest club seasons in the world would not be possible.

    From goal-scoring strikers and assisting midfielders to stone-cold defenders and goalkeepers, they all have had their moments in the sun.

    With that thought in mind, we pay tribute to the best individual performances to conserve throughout the multiple elite ages.

Telmo Zarra 1950-51

1 of 50

    Athletic Bilbao legend Telmo Zarra held the single-season goal-scoring record for decades in Spain.

    During the 1950-51 campaign, the Basque native scored 38 league goals and 46 in total across all competitions.

Filippo Inzaghi 2002-03

2 of 50

    Filippo Inzaghi had a host of amazing seasons during his long and successful career.

    However, his best season ever was in 2002-03\u2014when he returned 30 goals in all competitions.

Raul 2000-01

3 of 50

    Real Madrid and Spanish legend Raul rose to the occasion in 2000-01, scoring 32 goals in 50 appearances for the Whites.

    Despite his best season being over a decade ago, he continues to prolong his career with more success now with Al Sadd in Qatar.

Marco Van Basten 1986-87

4 of 50

    In his last year with Dutch Eredivisie side Ajax Amsterdam, Marco van Basten scored 45 goals in 44 appearances.

    The talented Netherlands striker would move on to AC Milan and continue his success, but never reached those goal-scoring heights again.

Johan Cryuff 1966-67

5 of 50

    Johan Cruyff reached the summit of his scoring abilities during his time with Ajax, when he scored 41 goals in 41 games during the 1966-67 season.

    An attacking midfielder scoring that many goals had truly been unheard of until the days of the Dutch master.

Robin Van Persie 2011-12

6 of 50

    Former Arsenal striker Robin van Persie (now with Manchester United) hit the prime of his career in his 2011-12 campaign for the Gunners.

    The then-28-year-old striker scored 37 goals in 48 appearances for the club, but it still wasn't enough to get Arsenal to the summit of the English Premier League.

Fernando Torres 2007-08

7 of 50

    Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has a great history of scoring goals. Unfortunately for his current club, that history came and apparently stayed at Liverpool.

    His debut campaign in the English Premier League in 2007-08 saw the young Spanish hitman score 33 goals in 46 games.

Wayne Rooney 2009-10

8 of 50

    Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney still has many years left, but he may have made his most masterful one the 2009-10 campaign for the Red Devils.

    The Liverpool-born forward scored 34 goals in 44 games to nearly lead his club to another title.

Radamel Falcao 2010-11

9 of 50

    Although last season was outstanding for the Colombian international at Atletico Madrid, his previous campaign at FC Porto in 2010-11 was even more impressive.

    Falcao notched 38 goals in 42 appearances for the Dragons and earned his massive move to Spain, where he is once again threatening to have a huge season this year.

Gunnar Nordahl 1950-51

10 of 50

    Swedish and AC Milan legend Gunnar Nordahl still holds the record for the most goals in a single season for the Milanese Reds.

    He scored 38 across all competitions for the club as they went on to claim the Serie A title in 1950-51.

Didier Drogba 2009-10

11 of 50

    Former Chelsea striker and Blues legend Didier Drogba was known for his ability to send his club to another level on the pitch.

    He was also capable of doing that with own skills\u2014as he did in 2009-10, when he scored 37 goals and provided 12 assists in 42 games en route to an English Premier League title.

Alan Shearer 1994-95

12 of 50

    Although he is loved and remembered the most fondly as a magpie of Newcastle United, Alan Shearer's greatest season came away from St. James' Park.

    Playing for the Blackburn Rovers during the 1994-95 English Premier League season,\u00a0 Shearer scored 37 goals in 49 total matches for the greatest haul in his history.

Giuseppe Meazza 1929-30

13 of 50

    The namesake of the San Siro himself lit up the stadium that now bears his name during the 1929-30 campaign for Inter Milan, scoring 31 total goals in 40 showings for the club.

Gordan Banks 1966

14 of 50

    Rated as one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time, English national Gordon Banks helped his country to the 1966 World Cup trophy as well as the British Home Championship.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink 1999-2000

15 of 50

    Dutch attacker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink had one of the greatest one-and-done careers that Spain has ever seen, as he scored 35 goals in 47 appearances for Atletico Madrid in his only season in La Liga.

Francesco Totti 2006-07

16 of 50

    AS Roma and Italian international centre-forward Francesco Totti had his career year in 2006-07, scoring 32 goals in 50 matches across all competitions for the Wolves.

    He remains the most complete centre-forward to have ever player for the eternal cities.

Oliver Kahn

17 of 50

    The wall of Kahn is still perhaps the greatest German goalkeeper that may ever have been. During the early 2000s there was no one better.

    His greatest season was 2000-01. He was a a finalist for the Ballon d'Or and the German footballer of the year. He also led Bayern Munich to the Bundesliga title and the pinnacle of European football\u2014winning the UEFA Champions League.

Michael Owen 2000-01

18 of 50

    Michael Owen may be loathed by many a Liverpool fan or his time at Manchester United and for leaving the club at his peak in general, but his Ballon d'Or winning-season of 2000-01 is one of the best in history.

    Owen scored 24 goals in 46 matches, but his overall play as the true second striker was a marvel for the world to watch.

Roberto Baggio 1992-93

19 of 50

    Italian attacking master Roberto Baggio took Serie A and Europe by storm in 1992-93, scoring 30 goals in 43 games for Juventus and lifting the Ballon d'Or.

Jean-Pierre Papin 1991-92

20 of 50

    Jean-Pierre Papin made his career at Marseille. During his six years at the club, he enjoyed great success, but none better than the 1991-92 campaign that included 36 goals in 50 games and the 1991 Ballon d'Or.

Zinedine Zidane 1997-98

21 of 50

    French international midfielder Zinedine Zidane was the example of class during the 1997-98 campaign of Juventus.

    Zidane led the Italian club to the Serie A title as well as another UEFA Champions League title for the club.

Luis Figo 2000

22 of 50

    It is interesting that, in the best overall calendar year of his career, Luis Figo split time between the two sides of arguably the world's most fierce rivalry.

    Figo moved from Barcelona to Real Madrid in the summer of 2000, but his calendar-year performance would see him lift the Ballon d'Or.

Thierry Henry 2003-04

23 of 50

    In the 2003-04 campaign, not only did Thierry Henry score 39 goals and assist another 14, he was part of Arsenal's \"Invincibles\"\u2014who finished the English Premier League undefeated for the first time since 1889, when Preston North End became the first club to ever do so.

Pavel Nedved 2003

24 of 50

    Only one player was better than Arsenal's Thierry Henry in the eyes of the European voting-rights holders during 2003, and that was Juventus midfielder Pavel Nedved.

    The players' only frustration was a failed attempt to win the UEFA Champions League.

Ronaldo 1996-97

25 of 50

    Brazilian-born Ronaldo had several amazing seasons in his career, but his one and only season at Barcelona stands out with 47 goals in 51 appearances for the Catalan giants.

Ruud Gullit 1986-87

26 of 50

    Ruud Gullit is another player that had one of the greatest seasons in history while in the Dutch Eredivisie.

    During the 1986-86 season with PSV Eindhoven, Gullit scored 28 goals in 37 appearances, set up many other chances for his teammates and also took home the Ballon d'Or.

Oleg Blokhin 1975

27 of 50

    Dynamo Kyiv legend Oleg Blokhin had great seasons in 1973 and 1974. However, his masterful class came to fruition in 1975 when he helped to lead his side to the UEFA Super Cup.

Michel Platini 1984-85

28 of 50

    Michel Platini is the only player to have won three successive Ballon d'Or trophies. However, his 1984-85 season stood out, as he led the Old Lady to the European cup.

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge 1980-81

29 of 50

    German forward Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is one of only a handful of players to have won consecutive European Footballer of the Year trophies.

    During the 1980-81 campaign, he reached the height of his goal-scoring accolades with 39 goals in 45 matches.

Franz Beckenbauer 1972

30 of 50

    Franz Beckenbauer helped to lead Bayern Munich to back-to-back Bundesliga titles in 1972-73, but it was his desire to score from the back that also helped to spur his team on.

    The German international scored 15 goals during the 1972 calendar year, a remarkable achievement for a defender.

Sir Bobby Charlton 1966

31 of 50

    There is only one Bobby Charlton. Arguably the greatest player in the history of Manchester United, the English midfielder won the 1966 Ballon d'Or as well as the 1966 World Cup .

Lothar Matthaus 1990-91

32 of 50

    German international Lothar Matthaus is one of the most prolific midfielders/defenders to have ever played.

    Not only did he win the 1990 Ballon d'Or, he also would score 23 goals in 46 appearances for Inter Milan during the ensuing league campaign.

Kenny Dalglish 1982-83

33 of 50

    Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish was at the top of his game during the 1982-83 season. He was the runner up for the Ballon d'Or, second only to Juventus' Michel Platini, who was on his way to three straight European Footballer of the Year awards.

    Additionally, he was the PFA Player of the Year for England and scored 20 goals in 57 games for the Reds while creating many more for Ian Rush and those around him.

Sir Stanley Matthews 1955-56

34 of 50

    Sir Stanley Matthews still reverberates as one of the greatest Englishmen to ever play the game. In 1955-56, he became the first player to be awarded the now-famous Ballon d'Or as the European footballer of the year.

    Beyond the fact that he will forever keep Blackpool in folklore because of winning the first European individual player trophy for the club, it is of importance that he achieved the award during the 20th season of his career.

Kevin Keegan 1978-79

35 of 50

    Kevin Keegan won back-to-back Ballon d'Or awards in 1978 and 1979, but the second one came at the height of his career in Germany with HSV Hamburg as a second striker.

    He scored 17 goals in 35 appearances while leading the club to only the fourth German title in their history.

Geroge Camsell 1926-27

36 of 50

    George Camsell is without a doubt one of Middlesbrough's greatest forwards in history.

    He proved that during the 1926-27 season, when he set the English record for nine hat-tricks in a single campaign.

Louis Van Hege 1914-15

37 of 50

    Louis Van Hege is still regarded as one of the greatest Belgians to pull on a kit.

    His 1914-15 campaign with AC Milan saw him score 22 goals in 20 games, as the early days of football in Italy were still seeing the true stars rise to the hierarchy of the sport.

Ian Rush 1983-84

38 of 50

    Liverpool will forever be in debt to Ian Rush for the phenomenal season he put in for the Reds during the 1983-84 campaign.

    Rush scored 47 goals in 65 appearances for the club, as the Reds rose to the top of the English First Division as well as the top of European football.

Lev Yashin 1962-63

39 of 50

    Legendary Russian goalkeeper Lev Yashin broke the mold for his position in the 1962-63 season, becoming the only keeper to ever be awarded the Ballon d'Or.

    He also was named the European Footballer of the Year for his contributions to both his club and the USSR national team.

Pele 1958

40 of 50

    Long time Brazilian and Santos legend Pele was making waves on the South American side of football while all eyes were on Europe.

    In the absence of worldwide acclaim, Pele scored 66 goals in all competitions in 1958.

Alessandro Del Piero 1997-98

41 of 50

    The one time that Italian and Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero broke 30 goals in a season was during 1997-98.

    His 32 goals in 47 games are the best he has seen in his career and helped to lead the Old Lady to a second straight Serie A title.

Eusebio 1967-68

42 of 50

    Portuguese international striker Eusebio took the Portuguese Primeira Liga by storm in 1967-68 when he scored 50 goals in just 35 games for Benfica.

Ruud Van Nistelrooy 2002-03

43 of 50

    Netherlands international striker Ruud van Nistelrooy had already made a name for himself at PSV Eindhoven before moving to the English Premier League.

    There he would lead the line for Manchester United and, in the process, have the greatest season of his career with 44 goals in 2002-03.

Andriy Shevchenko 2000-01

44 of 50

    AC Milan, Dynamo Kiev and Ukrainian legend Andriy Shevchenko announced his goal-scoring ability during the 2000-01 Serie A campaign, scoring 34 goals in 51 games for the Red Devils.

Ferenc Puskas 1959-60

45 of 50

    Hungarian striking legend Ferenc Puskas dazzled the world with his 47-goal display in 36 appearances for Real Madrid during the 1959-60 season.

Alfredo Di Stefano 1956-57

46 of 50

    Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano scored 43 goals in 43 appearances for the club during the 1956-57 campaign.

    The famous South American remains one of the greatest in the history of the game.

Dixie Dean 1927-28

47 of 50

    Everton legend Dixie Dean scored 60 goals in a single season during the 1927-28 campaign with the Toffees.

    It was only in the early stage of his career, but it is a milestone yet to be broken in the English top flight.

Cristiano Ronaldo 2011-12

48 of 50

    If there is one player who could have one-upped Cristiano Ronaldo's 2011-12 season, it was his biggest rival, Lionel Messi.

    Ronaldo had the season of his life last year, scoring 46 Spanish La Liga goals and a total of 60 in all competitions.

    However, it still was not enough to be the greatest goal scorer's season.

Gerd Muller 1972-73

49 of 50

    Bayern Munich and German international legend Gerd Muller took the cake with his masterful performance in the 1972-73 season.

    The German scored 67 goals in all competitions across 49 appearances.

Lionel Messi 2011-12

50 of 50

    During the 2011-12 season Lionel Messi scored 73 goals for Barcelona in all competitions, breaking the Spanish single-season record.

    Thirty-five of his goals were scored at the Nou Camp, another record. Additionally, he also broke the Spanish record for hat-tricks in a single campaign, with eight.

History[edit]

\n
\"Ali
Ali Daei was the first player to reach 100 international goals.
\n

The first player to score 50 international goals was Imre Schlosser of Hungary.[8] He achieved the feat when he scored a brace (two goals) in a 6\u20132 victory against Austria on 3 June 1917. In total, he scored 59 international goals in 68 matches, playing his last match on 10 April 1927.[a][9] He remained the highest international goalscorer for 26 years, until his fellow countryman Ferenc Pusk\u00e1s broke the record in 1953. Pusk\u00e1s was the third player, after Poul Nielsen of Denmark, to achieve 50 goals in his international career.[11][12] Nielsen achieved this feat on his 36th cap against Sweden in the 1924\u201328 Nordic Football Championship on 14 June 1925 and scored 52 goals in just 38 matches in his international career.[13][14][15] Pusk\u00e1s netted his 50th goal on 24 July 1952, when he scored a brace in the semi-final match against Turkey at the 1952 Summer Olympics.[16] However, Vivian Woodward scored 75 goals in 53 matches considered official internationals by the opposing sides, which would make him the first footballer to score 50 or more international goals, ahead of Imre Schlosser, and was the fastest to achieve the feat, scoring his 50th goal in his 32nd official international match, with a four-goal haul against Hungary on 31 May 1909.[17]\n

Pusk\u00e1s overall scored 84 goals in his international career,[11] and remained the highest international goalscorer for 24 years following his 84th goal in 1956 against Austria, until Mokhtar Dahari of Malaysia broke the record in the Merdeka Tournament after scoring his 85th goal on 27 October 1980 against Kuwait and he went on to score 89 goals for his country in 142 international appearances.[18][19][20] In 2004, Ali Daei of Iran broke the record after scoring his 90th goal against Lebanon.[21][22]\n

Daei also became the first player to score over 100 goals in international football, ending his career with 109 in total.[23][24] His 100th goal came on 17 November 2004, when he scored a four-goal haul against Laos in a 2006 FIFA World Cup qualification match.[25] However, the first player from Asia to reach 50 international goals was Malaya's Abdul Ghani Minhat. Furthermore, he was also the first player from outside Europe to achieve it. He achieved the feat on 15 December 1961 against Thailand and he went on to score 58 goals in 57 international appearances for his country which is 1.02 per match, making him one of the most prolific players in the world.[26][27][28] Just two years after Pusk\u00e1s' scored his 50th goal, his teammate S\u00e1ndor Kocsis did the same on 19 September 1954, in a friendly match against Romania.[29] He became both the fourth player and the fourth European to achieve the feat. He went on to score a total of 75 goals in 65 matches in international football.[30] Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal was the second player to score 100 international goals, as well as the first European to achieve the feat. He reached the milestone after scoring a brace against Sweden in the 2020\u201321 UEFA Nations League on 8 September 2020.[31] Lionel Messi of Argentina became the third player to reach and pass the milestone in a friendly match against Cura\u00e7ao on 28 March 2023, as well as the first South American to achieve the feat.[32][33][34]\n

Pel\u00e9 of Brazil was the first player from South America to score at least 50 international goals. He attained this in a friendly match against the Soviet Union on 21 November 1965, and went on to score 77 international goals in 92 matches.[35] Malawi's Kinnah Phiri was the first player from Africa, and also the youngest player, to score 50 international goals. He scored his 50th goal in a friendly match against Sierra Leone on 6 July 1978, aged 23 years, 8 months and 6 days.[36] Stern John of Trinidad and Tobago was the first player from North America to score 50 international goals. He scored 70 goals in 115 matches, with his 50th goal coming in a friendly match against the Dominican Republic on 13 June 2004.[37]\n

  1. ^ a b Austrian sources reported that on 1 November 1908 Imre Schlosser scored a brace in a 5\u20133 victory against Austria; one Hungarian source credits the 4\u20132 to B\u00e9la Krempels,[9] with UEFA also recognizing 59 goals in 68 appearances.[10]\n
  2. \n
  3. ^ a b c d e f Vivian Woodward scored 29 goals in 23 matches for the professional England team between 1903 and 1911, and 46 goals in 30 matches for the England amateur side between 1906 and 1914; all matches for the Amateur side were considered official internationals for their respective opponents.[17][50] With the English Football Association counting the statistics separately for the professional England team and England amateurs, Harry Kane is the top scorer of the respective nation.[51]\n
  4. \n
  5. ^ Matches against UAE and Morocco (in 1988), Kuwait (in 1989), Mali (twice in 1994) and Ghana (in 1997) are not considered official internationals by FIFA, but they are recognised by the Egyptian Football Association.[63]\n
  6. \n
  7. ^ The matches against Swaziland and Zambia in 2013 are not considered official internationals by FIFA, but they are recognised by the Egyptian Football Association.[85] \n
  8. \n
  9. ^ RSSSF does not include a goal in a match played on 29 July 2005 against UAE and a goal in a match played on 25 March 2022 against Latvia, and also wrongly attributes a goal on Al-Mutawa in the match played on 10 September 2018 against Iraq.[6][88][89] NFT (National-Football-Teams) includes a goal in the match played on 17 December 2011 against Saudi Arabia (U-23), a match though recognized neither by FIFA nor by RSSSF, and therefore it is not included here.[6][88]\n
  10. \n
  11. ^ 4 Olympic matches are not recognised as official by FIFA, but were official for the East German FA.\n
  12. \n
  13. ^ a b c Football Federation of Australia (FFA) was a member of OFC since its formation in 1966, but in 2006 FFA left OFC and joined AFC.[114][115] Tim Cahill debuted for Australia in 2004 when FFA was an OFC member and ended his international career in 2018.[116][117]\n
  14. \n
  15. ^ Vivian Woodward played for both England and England amateurs.[17][50]\n
  16. \n
  17. ^ Abdul Ghani played both for Malaya and Malaysia.[74]\n
  18. \n
  19. ^ Ferenc Pusk\u00e1s played four matches for Spain; 1 in the World Cup qualifiers in 1961 and 3 in the 1962 World Cup, but did not score any goal in these matches.[11]\n
