Are this official games?
Why is Ali Daei not on here…? He’s scored 109 for Iran and was #1 in intl goals until Ronaldo displaced him.
Chhetri casually pulling in the goat debate
The Goat of international football un-ironically
Why since 2000? So Iranian Ali Daei can be dropped form the list?
The amount of goals C. Ronaldo (and many european players) have on "small islands and states" is crazy though. Some dudes are literally dentists, butchers and gardeners hahahaa
that argument can be made for ever single federation , every continent has countries that get easily beat by everyone
Ali Mabkhout is lethal.
I swear Kaz Miura was in the top 10. Am I tripping or nah?
His last appearance for the Japanese national team was aged 33 in 2000. This graphic only includes goals since 2000.
It's crazy he retired so early with Japan, considering that he is still playing...
Maybe not the best comparison but a bit like Maldini retiring with Italy 7 years earlier than with Milan and missing the World Cup win
Indian football barely makes the news, I can't name a player, and yet this stat exists. Wtf.
A Chetri appears in the wild.
Lukaku's stats are insane when you know he has been playing in Belgian national team since 2010.
wished he was in group J , he would've probably scored like 15-20 goals
And he is just 30, could easily score another 30 goals if he plays till 35

Ronaldo score to Andorra, Liechtenstein, Malta, San marino, Gibraltar...
Messi score to Guatemala, Panama, Honduras, Nicaragua, Haiti, Curacao
See how easy that is...
Panama is ranked higher than half of UEFA.

Suarez, Neymar and Messi are among the 8 South American players in history to reach 50 international goals.
Counting active players, Cavani is another one.
Tells you about how a massive feat that is in the region.
Qualifying for the tournaments is easier overall for the big South American teams because they are much better than the weaker teams over the course of many games, but there is no comparison between the actual difficulty of the games. Weak South American teams are still incredibly difficult to beat. There isn't a single easy game in CONMEBOL
Agreed. It's not like we have a Gibraltar or Malta or St Vincent and the Grenadines or Puerto Rico.
UEFA is great for International stat padding.
Pre-1990's I'd say Venezuela would have been THAT team. But today's Venezuela is scoring bicycle kick goals in Brazil and getting out of there with a point. I believe football is catching up to, if not surpassing, baseball in popularity for the first time.
With the expansion they will most likely make it to the next World Cup. Should be amazing to see those players singing the national anthem of their country for the first time in a World Cup.

Ruiz 🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹
Hope Lucho Suárez can reach 70 on his next (and supposedly last game with Uruguay) against Bolivia
Since there is no player from any African nations that made it, here's a few African footballers with the most international goals since 2000:
-
Didier Drogba - 65 goals in 105 matches
-
Samuel Eto'o - 56 goals in 118 matches
-
Mohamed Salah - 55 goals in 94 matches
-
Asamoah Gyan - 51 goals in 109 matches
-
Islam Slimani - 44 goals in 96 matches
For Oceania (including Australia):
-
Tim Cahill - 50 goals in 108 matches
-
Roy Krishna - 35 goals in 49 matches
-
Chris Wood - 34 goals in 73 matches
-
Commins Menapi - 34 goals in 37 matches
And Salah scored 4 just a couple of days ago
It looks really hard to score in African international matches.
All the recent African Cup of Nations tournaments had 2 goals per game or fewer. Compared to the 2.7 average of the world cups.
Damn who’s the Indian man?
chetri 🩵
My (indian) boy Chhettri in there! Get in there lad!
Top5 without friendlies included:
Ronaldo 108
Chhetri 64
Lewandowski 62
Messi 57
Lukaku 56
Bit unfair on south american nationals tbf
Lol, surely those 'competitive' goals against San Marino, Gibraltar, etc are worth more than friendlies against Brazil, France, etc.

The Germans may not be the top scorers but they came pretty Klose
Lukakus numbers are actually mad ngl
siuuuu
Lewandowski is super impressive since Poland as a team is not that quality
I can only think of like 5 other Polish players that were actually class over the last decade. It's kinda surprising how mid they are.

Do Chelsea fans know there’s a post with positive stats about Lukaku?
If India isn't playing WC during Chethri's time, then when?
Put some respek on Lukaku's name.
These lists always just boil down to Messi and Ronaldo fans arguing over who is the GOAT. The most boring discussion in football.
