One football fun fact i find incredible is that Lionel Messi has never done a knee slid celebration for any of his 800 + goals.

Messi scoring almost 900 goals and he's not a striker. His stature didn't even suit to be a scorer at all.

This is a big lie. It's not possible to play 90 mins without touching the ball, except the person is a cripple
It happened in the world cup final and France came out as eventual winners with Giroud getting an 8+ player rating for his work rate.

Please specify the match where it happened, and I will prove you wrong.

Olivier didn't even play 90mins in that match.

Philipp Lahm went 13months without conceding a foul.

United has 100% record against Barcelona in European games, winning all the 4 matches. The United is not in Manchester but Dundee 😀

Kingsley Coman has never not won the league. He has been playing football professionally for 12years and has been winning the league consecutively playing for three different clubs since he broke into the PSG senior team. He switched from PSG to Juventus and now in Bayern Munich.
He did not win the league 2 seasons ago

CR7 and Ibrahimovic are the only players to have score in all minutes of a football match 1-90.
CR7 and Gianluigi Buffon are the only players to have played with father and son for the same football team.
CR7 played with Sergio Conceicao for Portugal national team back in 2004 and is now playing with his son Francesco Conceicao.
Buffon played with Enrico Chiesa both for Juventus and the Italian National team and played with Francesco Chiesa of Liverpool when he was at Juventus. The funniest part was Buffon attended the naming ceremony of the younger Chiesa and even carried him in his hands.
.
Eidur Gudjohnson former player of Chelsea and Barcelona who's a Finland international was the first player to play with his father for a national team. Though the history wasn't complete cus he was substituted for his father and they never get to play together on the same field. That was the last match for his father
Iceland not Finland

Coman didn't win the league when Kane arrived in Bayern though (his first season).

Ohh,, 2023 was the year.

I didn't see that year on the top part of the post, just the date and month and since we were in July I assumed it was recently. grin.

Sorry for the back and forth though, I get your point now.
