The result as recorded when the match ended. Scorers are named only when every goal has a named scorer, none was an own goal and each scorer is on that side's team sheet.
Newest first, competitive matches settled in normal time. Our records begin in January 2024 and do not hold every match, so a meeting can be missing.

Preston Lions scored most in 31-45+ (6 of 21) and conceded most in 16-30 (4 of 8). Altona Magic scored most in 61-75 (4 of 10) and conceded most in 76-90+ (4 of 13). Goals by the minute they were scored, from the last 10 competitive matches in our records that finished in normal time.

A match whose minute record does not add up to the score is left out, and the matches row shows how many were used.
