At a wedding in North Wales. All the dinner tables are named after Liverpool managers. Of course I'm on Souness.

 

Kick someone off the Rafa table.

 

Is your table full of proper people?

One of the players from that Zaire team, Ricky Mavuba, fled the country later on and lived in Angola. There, he maried an Angolan woman. When the Angolan civil war broke out, him and his pregnant wife escaped on a boat, where she gave birth. The family gained refugee status in France. When the child was 2 his mom died and when he was 14 Ricky Mavuba passed away. This pushed the child to dedicate himself fully to football as a coping mechanism. In 2014, Rio Mavuba played for France at the World Cup, 40 years after his father played for Zaire.

 

Incredible. Knew he was born on a boat but didn't know the story behind it.

Gigi Buffon did not have the ideal Paris Saint-Germain debut, giving away a penalty and conceding two goals in a defeat to Chambly (from the 3rd tier).

 

The 40-year-old goalkeeper started the friendly match and within five minutes had brought down a player to give away a penalty, which was then converted.

 

He conceded again before making way at half-time and PSG eventually lost 4-2.
