Some of the early games where little more than exhibition matches with only three teams contesting the 1904 St Louis games two of which where from the U.S.A.!
"Football was not on the original modern Olympic Games programme, perhaps unsurprisingly, as international football was in its infancy in 1896. However an unofficial football tournament was organised during the first competition. Complete records have been lost but it seems that only two games may have been played. An Athens XI lost to a team representing Smyrna (Izmir), then part of the Ottoman Empire. Smyrna went on to be beaten 15-0 by a team from Denmark. Demonstration tournaments were played at the 1900 and 1904 games and the "Intercalated Games" of 1906, but these were contested by various clubs and scratch teams, and are not considered to be official Olympic events. In 1906 teams from Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Netherlands and France were withdrawn from an unofficial competition and left Denmark, Smyrna (one Armenian, two Frenchmen and eight Britons), Athens and Thessaloniki Music Club to compete. Denmark won the final against Athens 9-0."What is the most goals scored in soccer game?Most i've heard of so far was in an Australia vs. American Samoa game in 2001 or 2002 which ended in favor of Australia 31-0.
