Goals in games whose scorers are recorded in the source (most competitive games, not every friendly), so totals can be lower than official records.

Shoot-outs count as draws in records and ratings. Results: martj42/womens-international-results (CC0), women’s internationals since 1956 — every major tournament, but not yet every friendly, and updated less often than the men’s file. Rounds worked out from the results.
