Three football teams played each other once in a tournament. Athletic beat City, City beat Borough and Borough beat Athletic. They could not decide which team should receive the trophy because:

Athletic had scored the most goals
Borough had the best goal average (goals for divided by goals against)
City had the best goal difference (goals for minus goals against)

Fewer than 40 goals were scored in the tournament.

What were the scores for the teams in each of the three games?
