Comparison of Gaelic football and rugby union goalkeeper. Scores are recorded in the format Goal Total-Point Total. To determine the score-line goals must be converted to points and added to the other points. For example, in a match with a final score of Team A 0–21 Team B 4–8, Team A is the winner with 21 points, as Team B scored only 20 points (4 times 3, plus 8). There is no "goalkeeper" in rugby union, instead there is a "fullback", although it must be said that the fullback in rugby union is not required to guard a goal in the same way that a goalkeeper does.
