Alan Shearer was the first player in English Premier League history to score 200 career goals. The forward accomplished the feat against Charlton Athletic on April 20, 2002. Shearer's goal in the 89th minute gave Newcastle United a 3-0 win.
Shearer is the only player to score 100 goals for two Premier League clubs, netting 112 goals for the Blackburn Rovers from 1992 to 1996 and another 148 for Newcastle from 1996 until his retirement in 2006. Shearer's 260 career Premier League goals remain the most in league history.
