After the close of a soccer season, with four teams (named A, B, C and D), the final table was:

TEAM   Won   Drawn Lost     Goals Goals     Points
                            For   Against
A      3     0     0        7     1         9
B      1     1     1        2     3         4
C      1     1     1        3     3         4
D      0     0     3        1     6         0

Knowing that the four teams played against each other one time, and that team A beat team B 3x0, can you deduce the results of the other five games?

Someone not familiar with the rules of soccer might be confused about "Goals" and "Points".

Goal: a ball that crosses the goal line between the goalposts and below the crossbar.

Points: a team statistic indicating its degree of success, calculated as follows: 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie, 0 points for a loss.
