Ben Woodburn became Liverpool's youngest-ever goalscorer last season during the EFL Cup. The now 17-year-old attacker made his Wales debut in a World Cup qualifier against Austria Saturday, and, guess what, he scored.
And it was a banger.

During the interview after the game, Woodburn looked like a fan who had run on the field to try to meet Gareth Bale, actually got close enough to toch the Real Madrid star and froze like a deer in the headlights.

It's enough to wonder when these two will inevitably meet as opponents on the pitch.
