EnglandCounted 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.
Paul Scholes is an English former football pundit, coach, and player.

Scholes won 25 trophies, including 11 Premier League titles, three FA Cups, and two UEFA Champions League titles. He is renowned for his technical skills, accurate passing, intelligent movement, powerful shooting from long range, and goal-scoring ability. — Wikipedia

16 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.
