The Athletic’s Friday football quiz question #12

Must read

Welcome to the 12th edition of The Athletic’s Friday quiz question.

At the end of every week, we’ll serve up a poser from our vault of football conundrums. It won’t be easy (unless you’re really good), but what better way to head into the weekend than to give your soccer-loving brain a bit of exercise? Chuck it in your group chats and see who knows their stuff.

Oh, and there’s no prize, except the quiet satisfaction of a job well done.

So, without any further delay…


Jordan Pickford, Kyle Walker, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Luke Shaw, Declan Rice, Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka all have the chance to play in a second European Championship final on Sunday. So far, 11 other players have achieved this feat from Euro 2000 onwards. Name them.

Stuck? The answer will be revealed here later.
