List of goalscoring goalkeepers

Goals scored by goalkeepers are a somewhat rare event in football. Goalkeepers spend the majority of a match in the penalty area of their own team, a marked area around the goal they are defending in which they can handle the ball in order to defend their goal. It is highly unusual for a goalkeeper to move far beyond this area and join an attack, as this leaves the defence vulnerable to long-distance attempts until the goalkeeper can return to defend it.

Records
The record for most goals scored by goalkeeper is held by the Brazilian Rogério Ceni, with 129 goals. He scored his 100th goal in a 3–0 win for São Paulo on 4 August 2011. In addition to having the second most goals (67), Paraguayan José Luis Chilavert has recorded the most goals scored in international matches (8), is the first goalkeeper to score a hat-trick, and in 2000, while playing with Vélez Sarsfield, he and Argentine goalkeeper Roberto Bonano with River Plate both scored in the same Copa Mercosur match. On 2 November 2013, Stoke City goalkeeper Asmir Begović scored a goal which was the fastest for a professional goalkeeper in football history (13 seconds). On 27 April 1985, SV Darmstadt 98 goalkeeper Wilhelm Huxhorn broke the record for the longest goal in football history (103 metres / 112.6 yards), in a match against Fortuna Köln. However, the longest goal to have been officially recorded in the Guinness World Records was scored by Tom King of Newport County, on 19 January 2021 against Cheltenham Town. The goal was confirmed to be long. ==List==
