Jack Grealish has been sent a message by Finlay, the boy who he dedicated his celebration to after scoring for England against Iran in the World Cup on Monday.
The playmaker put away Callum Wilson’s assist to score his country’s final goal in the 6-2 victory. After finding the net, he found the camera to do the arm-worm dance he promised Finlay he would do next time he scored.
The youngster, who lives with cerebral palsy, plays in Manchester City ’s CFA programme which provides a safe space for disabled children to enjoy football. Finlay met Grealish after sending his hero a letter after hearing his sister also has cerebral palsy.
