Bit of football trivia I found when casually surfing.

Ryan Sessegnon:

On 27 May 2019, Sessegnon achieved the Guinness World Records title for 'Fastest time to hit both football goal posts and crossbar', doing so in just 7.75 seconds.

Interesting, but it makes you wonder how he didn’t score.

I reckon there's a stat for just about everything. I must be the best in the world at something!

I love it when it's said that they're 'the first person/team/whatever since yesterday'

Can someone tell me what the above NCAP refers to please ?

News, Current Affairs and Politics.

Negativity, cant and polemic.

In a match? or a set up challenge?

Indeed Fulham's Mitrovic hasn't broken the goal scoring record for the 2nd tier of English football, despite recent headlines, in fact he's miles off it.

Well, Riley apologises to Everton for the handball cock-up.

That should be 1 point added to Everton and 2 off of M. City.

why, he wasn't the ref or the VAR on the day?

Riley is the Ref's Chief and was responding to the formal complaint from Everton re Tierney (Ref) & Kavanagh (VAR) making a monumental cock-up between them.

Cos it's never happened before? Like someone gets sent off and then it gets rescinded, but they don't hand the win and points to the wronged team afterwards.
No guarantee the penalty would have been scored anyhow. These things seem to even themselves out (other than no opponent would get a penalty awarded at Old Trafford )

I had to Google that.
