Counted from the international goal archive — every scorer-credited goal in the matches it covers, 1916 to today. A record of covered matches, not a complete career count; own goals never join a scorer's tally.

In the line-ups
29 appearances in recorded line-ups · 2009–2021The archive holds 29 team sheets naming Bryan Ruiz in Costa Rica's starting line-up, from 2009-11-14 to 2021-07-20.
29 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
