If you're not a fan of Gabor Kiraly then get the hell out of this article. We don't want you here.

The Hungarian goalkeeper broke a record earlier this week when he became the oldest player ever to play at a European Championships at 40 years & 75 days old. https://twitter.com/Squawka/status/742734275586498560 He kept a clean sheet against Austria in their Group F opener and five days later, he decided to get a little fancy. No, he didn't ditch the grey sweatpants for which he has become famous. But he did break out a wonderfully unnecessary throw-out in the first half of Hungary's clash with Iceland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1YDBOAH7jY Rather than simply roll the ball to his centre-half, the former Crystal Palace stopper decided to use an American football-esque snap towards a teammate. Why? We don't know the answer to that question. SNAPCHAT
