Amateur footie team set unbelievable record after all ten outfield players scored in a 10-0 win

AN amateur footie team believe they have set a world record after all ten outfield players hit the back of the net in one match.

Sharp-shooters AFC Eastfield routed league strugglers Pocklington 10-0 in their biggest ever win, but they also achieved a unique feat when all players scored a goal.

The club is now checking with Guinness World Records in a bid to get their historic win recognised.

The team, from Scarborough, North Yorks, celebrated wildly at full-time — except for club secretary Stephen Crosby, who had promised to buy every player a pint if they could reach double figures and keep a clean sheet.

At 9-0 I was offering our players £20 for an own goal

Stephen, 64, told The Sun: “Never in my wildest dreams did I think they’d do it.

“We were 3-0 up at half-time which was a pretty nice cushion to have.

“The manager told the lads to put the pressure on them in the second half and to push on — and they did.

“It’s not like our keeper had nothing to do. Pocklington broke forward a few times.

“We kept rattling the goals in. By the time we were 9-0 up, I was offering our players £20 to score an own goal.”

The first was scored by Ryan Herrington, with Chris Hannam and Brad Cawkwell also on the scoresheet before half time.

In the second half, Martyn Kelly, Brad-Lee Craggs, Conor Fiddy and Cailum Webster took the score to 7-0 before Billy Lawson and Omer Issa Yousef helped the side reach 9-0.

And in the 75th minute, striker Rio Scott headed the tenth goal into the net.

Stephen, from Scarborough, said it was even more remarkable as the team lost all 18 league matches last season.

He added: “We almost folded twice as we were so demoralised. In the end, the league collapsed and we were moved to the East Riding County League.”

Of their win, he said: “I don’t think any side has had all ten outfield players score in one game. It’s unheard of.”

Arbroath’s 36-0 demolition of Bon Accord in 1885 is the biggest win recognised by Guiness World Records — but only six different players scored.

Nine scored as Liverpool thrashed Norwegian side Strømsgodset 11-0 in a European Cup Winners’ Cup match in 1974.

And the Reds also had eight players hit on target in 1989 as the Anfield giants beat Crystal Palace 9-0.

But AFC Eastfield reckon they are the first side to have all ten outfield players score.
