World Cup Final Goalscorer Fact

[agchristie]

Mario Goetze scored Germany's first WC goal in qualifying, v Faroes

[Zacs-Master]

Ain't life strange.

[agchristie]

Perhaps not as strange as Germany later blowing a 4-0 lead with 35mins left against Sweden...

That is a good trivia question for years to come agchristie, also he is the first
sub to score winning goal in WC final.

[Ken4155]

^^

In a tournament with over 30 instances of subs coming on and scoring.

[agchristie]

Yes that is correct MagicMick! Well taken goal but I didnt think it was 'awesome'

[magicmick]

Not sure what you mean Ken4155 are you saying over 30 subs have come on in WC finals and all scored?

[Ken4155]

No, Mick. In this particular tournament, over 30 substitutes have gone on to score in the match. Which has proved to be a lucrative avenue for myself and other like-minded folk on the gambling forum of which i am a member. Though i hasten to add that i did not put any money on any of tonight's subs - as all 6 were used.

[magicmick]

Sorry agchristie that sounds like a Alan Shearer comment, the guy who I am sure
played either 8 or 9 consecutive games for England without scoring, but yet kept
being selected 'awesome' :)

I see Ken4155 glad to hear you won a few bob, I had Germany 2-1 at 10/1. But I had Brazil
in sweep got me £25
