The term "last-minute goal" is used in sport, primarily association football, to describe a goal scored very late in a game, usually one that affects the outcome of the game. The definition of a "last-minute goal" commonly used is one scored either in the final or penultimate minute of regulation time or extra time, or during stoppage time or injury time.
Last-minute goals are often noteworthy if it allows the scoring team to either take the lead or to equalise.
The "golden goal", briefly used to decide extra time in some tournaments, is not usually considered a last-minute goal, unless they were scored late into extra time. Penalties scored in a shootout are not considered last-minute goals.
This list of last-minute goals includes notable goals from higher levels of national or international football among major tournaments and qualifying matches.
