BelgiumCounted 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.
Timmy Simons is a Belgian professional football coach and a former defensive midfielder who is currently managing OH Leuven. He was known for his tireless work ethic and penalty-taking ability, having scored 65 competitive goals through penalties, missing only 7. In 2012, at age 36, Simons was both the outfield player with the most minutes and the most kilometres in the Bundesliga. Simons' former clubs include Lommel, Club Brugge, PSV Eindhoven and 1. FC Nürnberg. He captained both Club Brugge and PSV Eindhoven, and won the Belgian Golden Shoe in 2002 while playing for Club Brugge. In addition, he is also one of a select number of players who have amassed over 1,000 career appearances. — Wikipedia
