To calculate the total goals scored by each team, we need to multiply the number of dots at each goal count by the corresponding number of goals and then sum them up.

For Team A:

0 goals: 1 dot × 0 = 0 goals
1 goal: 2 dots × 1 = 2 goals
2 goals: 4 dots × 2 = 8 goals
3 goals: 2 dots × 3 = 6 goals
4 goals: 3 dots × 4 = 12 goals
5 goals: 0 dots × 5 = 0 goals

Total for Team A = 0 + 2 + 8 + 6 + 12 + 0 = 28 goals

For Team B:

0 goals: 1 dot × 0 = 0 goals
1 goal: 5 dots × 1 = 5 goals
2 goals: 2 dots × 2 = 4 goals
3 goals: 1 dot × 3 = 3 goals
4 goals: 2 dots × 4 = 8 goals
5 goals: 1 dot × 5 = 5 goals

Total for Team B = 0 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 8 + 5 = 25 goals

Therefore: Team A scored 28 goals, and Team B scored 25 goals.
