Edu Snethlage – Goals in International Matches


The outstanding Dutch player scored 10 international goals in 11 matches for his National Team. He held the Dutch record of goals for the national team from October 25, 1908 (when he equalled the total of Eddy de Neve; in fact, after changes made in the official goal scorers of the second ever Dutch international match on May 14, 1905, it turns out he surpassed rather than equalled that total on that day) until October 16, 1910 (when his total was surpassed by Jan Thomée). All matches are friendlies unless stated otherwise.

NB: all 4 losses were against opponents (England Amateurs and
    Great Britain) for which the match in question was not an
    official international; considering only those matches which 
    were official for both the Netherlands and its opponents on
    the day, Snethlage has a perfect record of 7 wins from 7
    matches with a goal record of 26-8.
