Most codes of football from before 1863 provided only one means of scoring (typically called the "goal", although Harrow football used the word "base").

The first was in the 1988–89 season, where 3 points were awarded for a win by two or more goals (after normal or extra time), 2 points were awarded for a one-goal win (after normal or extra time), 1 point was awarded for a penalty shootout win and zero points were awarded for penalty shootout defeats or defeats after normal or extra time.
