nuttytimmy Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 After SSL's wonderful headed goal for Ireland against Croatia tonight, which other serving City players have scored at major international tournaments (i.e. European/World Cup finals)? I'm actually after the last serving player to score at the Euros, if you're reading this Foxblogger!
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Good for SSL... I've always liked the Ireland team. Mi second favourite international team. Ill be buggered if I can think of other serving players to have scored. Must be some though surely?
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Heskey I thought this was 'serving' players as in playing for City when they scored? Or have I read it wrong?
nuttytimmy Posted 10 June 2012 Author Posted 10 June 2012 Col, you read it right, as serving players.
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Ahhh got one I think...? Theo Zagorakis for Greece
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Linekar? You think Lineker played for England when he was at Leicester? Don't think so?
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 What about Big Alan Young for Scotland? Clutching at straws.....
Zingari Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 You think Lineker played for England when he was at Leicester? Don't think so? Yes he did He made his England debut in 84 and left for Everton in 85 He never scored at the Euros though
pSinatra Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Matt Elliott for Scotland ..........& Lineker played for England when he was still at Leicester!! EDIT: Scrub Matt Elliott. Must learn to read!!
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Yes he did He made his England debut in 84 and left for Everton in 85 He never scored at the Euros though Good call then... Genuinely didn't know that. Matt Elliott for Scotland ..........& Lineker played for England when he was still at Leicester!! Which tournament did Matty play in?
Al-aLondon-Foxile Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 You think Lineker played for England when he was at Leicester? Don't think so? He made his debut for England whilst still at city, pretty sure it was a sub appearance against Scotland at Hamden park. Don't think he scored whilst he played for us tho. I'd say Joey Gudjohnasson would be a good bet as a scorer for Iceland?

orangecity23 Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Sol Bamba scored his penalty in the African Cup of Nations shootout (at the 2nd attempt). Doesn't really count though. I don't think Theo scored at a major tourney while at city, when Greece won the Euros, Zagorakis wasn't with us any more - we did have Dabizas though, don't think he played much though.
Iwan is a Welshman Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Bamba scored in a pen shootout but not in play proper.
Vlad the Fox Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 He made his debut for England whilst still at city, pretty sure it was a sub appearance against Scotland at Hamden park. Don't think he scored whilst he played for us tho. I'd say Joey Gudjohnasson would be a good bet as a scorer for Iceland? Didn't he score against northern ireland while a Leicester player?
Iwan is a Welshman Posted 10 June 2012 Posted 10 June 2012 Theo didn't score a goal for Greece until 5 years after he left us.
