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
15 appearances in recorded line-ups · 1994–2000The archive holds 15 team sheets naming Dan Petrescu in Romania's starting line-up, from 1994-06-18 to 2000-06-20.
15 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.
