Default highest # in a column A & returns answer from column B Formula

This was excellent, i have one more question if two playrers have the same
total the formula grabs the first name. Sometimes two players are tied and i
need to have both in order, can this formula be tweaked to accomodate this.
Example:

Player a has 5 goals, player b has 9 goals player c has 5 goals the order
should show

Player b-9
player a-5
player c-5

any suggestions?

I almost have this working perfect and your help is appreciatted.
