Gibraltar’s Jake Gosling wrote himself into the history books during the last international break with his consolation goal during his country’s 8-1 loss to Poland.
His effort saw him “smash” Gibraltar’s goal scoring record leaving him with an impressive international tally of two.
A much smaller story this week was some guy called Blaine Rooney or something also broke his country’s goalscoring record. A video of his speech in the dressing room has since gone viral, which Gosling’s team Bristol Rovers team must have seen come up on their timelines.
Rovers gave Gosling a similarly rousing speech when he returned home from international duty after completing his remarkable feat.
Who needs Wayne Rooney!? #JakeGosling #Gibraltar #AllTimeGoalScorer https://t.co/WbwgIAeXkR
