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.
Johann "Hans" Krankl is an Austrian former professional footballer. A prolific striker, he is regarded by many as one of Austria's greatest players. — Wikipedia

In the line-ups
9 appearances in recorded line-ups · 1978–1982The archive holds 9 team sheets naming Hans Krankl in Austria's starting line-up, from 1978-06-07 to 1982-06-28.
9 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.
