Each men's national team's all-time top goalscorer; every item is a player, worth their international goals. Joint leaders all count (14 countries, e.g. United States, Denmark, Bulgaria). 64 are still playing internationally, so totals can change (e.g. Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Romelu Lukaku, Robert Lewandowski). There are 19167 ways to hit exactly 100 on this board, and 178 of them use only 2 darts. Of 3,473 players so far, 3% hit a bullseye and 78% went bust; the average score was 19.

Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Build an exact checkout from the actual board
- Use the recorded board for “Each country's all-time top goalscorer, by international goals”, where values are goals. The target is 100, so work backwards from the remainder instead of selecting famous or high-valued entries alone.
- Choose Sunil Chhetri, worth 95: 100 − 95 = 5 remaining.
- Choose Girdon Connor, worth 5: 5 − 5 = 0 remaining.
- Checking every distinct-entry single and pair on the stored board finds 178 exact 2-dart checkouts and no exact checkout using fewer darts. The chosen sum is 95 + 5 = 100.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Sunil Chhetri (95) + Girdon Connor (5) | Exact checkout | The recorded values sum to 100 in 2 darts. |
| Sunil Chhetri (95) + Richard O'Connor (5) | Equally short alternative | 95 + 5 = 100. This uses the same minimum number of distinct board entries; it is not scored lower in this calculation. |
| Sunil Chhetri (95) + Cristiano Ronaldo (146) | Overshoots | 95 + 146 = 241, 141 above the target. This is an illustrative calculation, not a recorded player attempt. |
What this does and does not establish
- Calculations use the values stored for this puzzle, including the game’s rounding and scaling. They are not updated real-world statistics. Candidate combinations use distinct entries; the count here covers only the minimum-length combinations, not all longer ways to total 100.
