Youngest goal scorer ever in Europe on Thursday, back to school Friday morning


Michael Noonan overtook Romelu Lukaku as Europe's youngest ever goal scorer in Shamrock Rovers 1-0 away to Molde on Thursday night
16 year old, Michael Noonan, overtook the likes of Romelu Lukaku to become the youngest ever player to score a goal in a European competition at just 16 years and 197 days old, as Shamrock Rovers beat Molde 1-0 away in Norway on Thursday.
That didn't stop him heading straight to school on Friday morning all the same.
The Irish man scored the only goal as Shamrock Rovers bring a 1-0 back to Tallaght as they attempt to go one step further in the Europa Conference League.
Comments under the X post of Michael heading to school are very funny with one user writing:
“Why haven’t you done your homework lad? Eh I was in Norway and I got home late. No excuse.“
Another reads:
“No homework for a week!“
A third user writes:
“That's great news. I am so pleased for him. He will do ireland proud too“
