I just saw the new Arsenal ad where they show which game was played on the day the models were born. So i got curious. Turns out on the day I was born Arsenal beat Manchester 2:1 in the FA cup

    None. I was born midweek. But the Saturday before we beat Birmingham 1-0, then lost 2-0 to spuds. We finished the season 10th and were knocked out of the FA Cup in a replay away to Villa.

    But I share a birthday with Tony Adams, so that makes up for it.

    I was born 28.04.2000 so no game, but they’ve played Everton day after and won 1:0.

    I’m not gonna to share because the top post made me a bit paranoid, but what’s really fascinating is the extensive data available on Transfermarkt. They have detailed goal records dating back 30+ years, including which body part was used to score each goal.
