The video of this footballer’s son was cute but the responses took it to a different league
The always followable @BeardedGenius posted this video from former Arsenal player Tomas Rosicky’s testimonial in which he helped his 5-year-old son score against another ex-Arsenal player, Jens Lehmann.

Very cute (and funny) it was too. But people’s responses took it to a whole new level. Here are our favourites.
1.
No celebration from the kid, definitely angling for a transfer

2.
Scored against his former club.

Kid's just lucky Harry Kane wasn't on his team

Is that Karius in goal

If you rewind and look closely, Ramos elbowed Lehman just before this. If you knew anything about concussion you wouldn't blame him

Absolute joke. And no doubt a blind eye will be turned. This sort of thing is rife in football and peoples ignorance do it is blighting the beautiful game.

It’s not real Joel don’t sweat it, kid isn’t old enough go sign a pro contract.

How is it not real? Kid is clearly being carried as well which is clearly a breach. All this on the eve of the biggest tournament we have to offer? The whole world has its eye on the sport and this is what happens.

Mmnn…not sure. As a Sunderland season ticket holder I’ve seen similar defending for the past 5 years..

It's the goalkeeper celebrating that worries me….

12 players on the pitch? #sanctions

Wouldn’t stop Ramos from taking out the wee lad mind.

As @BeardedGenius joked later …
Here was a more straightforward take on the action.
