The goalkeeper from the viral "well done, he's 13" clip with Michael Owen was today reunited with Neville Southall 23 years later.
Teenage stopper Jamie Hutchinson had the unenviable task of standing between the posts for a section of the Michael Owen Soccer Skills show back in 1999 as the then Liverpool and England star fired home shot after shot. Owen celebrated every goal while laughing, pushing Southall to say the now infamous line: 'Well done, he's 13'.
The clip went viral and continues to be watched to this day, and Hutchinson was reunited with Southall some 23 years on as the latter posted a picture on social media.

Southall captioned the photo: "Look who I bumped into today. ‘Well done, he’s 13’ It’s Jamie from the Michael Owen Soccer Skills video"
Hutchinson, now 36, was sporting the same fluorescent orange goalkeeping shirt as he did during the viral clip but looked somewhat better fit for the full-size goal frame that dwarfed him as a 13-year-old. Coached by Southall, he was tasked with thwarting Owen who had won consecutive Premier League Golden Boots and would go on to win the 2001 Ballon d'Or.
The picture hinted at a potential repeat of the much-loved clip - an idea that the shot-stopper admitted he would be part of back in 2017: “I would 100% love to film it again, with a pair of gloves that actually fit and me being able to touch the crossbar. Hopefully there’d be a better outcome…”
