Gary Lineker has poked fun at himself on Twitter by highlighting how Liverpool's teenage star Harvey Elliott has more goals than him in European football.
For all of Lineker's goal-scoring heroics throughout his career, whether that be at Everton, Tottenham or indeed Champions League titans Barcelona, he never managed a single strike in club football's most elite competition. In contrast, Elliott notched what was actually his second against Ajax on Wednesday night.
Lineker wrote: "A first Champions League goal for Harvey Elliott. He now has more goals in the Champions League/European Cup than….me," followed by a winking emoji. However, Elliott actually nabbed his first goal in European football last week during than 7-1 battering of Rangers at Ibrox.
