Super-subs — goals off the bench

Every World Cup goal scored by a substitute, 2002–2026 — the scorer's arrival minute joined to the goal minute from the stored line-ups. Own goals excluded. 86 of 188 bench goals arrived in the 85th minute or later; elapsed time treats 45+2′ as 47′.

Bench goals per tournament: 2002: 20 · 2006: 22 · 2010: 15 · 2014: 32 · 2018: 15 · 2022: 29 · 2026: 55 — the 26-man, 48-team era is a super-sub festival.
