5 Clubs:
Benny Carbone

Hat Tricks:
Alan Shearer

evilhomer

Jimmy Floydd Hasselbaink for hat trick of hat tricks.

Juan Pablo

Bennito Carbone is correct. The final player of the 5 club question would have been celebrating new year over the past few days.....

Still two remaining players, both who would have started their carrers in England and have had a stint on the continent. Both are still currently playing for Premiership clubs.......

Thats a hard one, was it somethin like the IFA cup as back in the day the whole country played in the same leagues n cups, not like nowadays.

Roddy23

What was the original name of the FAI cup?

Clue: you've got to be thinking along the lines of what was happening in Ireland around the time it was first played.

Drag00n79

It was the Free State Cup.

Roddy23

we've got a winner

Drag00n79

OK, here we go. This might be a bit easy but my question is what is so special about Völler's goal in the 81st minute for West Germany against the Argentines in the 1986 World Cup Final?

blu_sonic

Roddy23
