  • During the Spurs vs Liverpool game today
    Bradley got replaced by Isak on 46'... Isak got replaced by Frimpong on 60'...Frimpong got replaced by Chiesa on 90'
    I know Isak was injured after scoring
    But can't be many times in the past where the subtitute has been subtituted that many times?
    Good stat! I can only recall witnessing that happen once before - England Slovakia 2009.

    Emile Heskey replaced by Carlton Cole (15)
    Carlton Cole replaced by Peter Crouch (35)
    Peter Crouch replaced by Michael Carrick (74)

    In both games, the player in the chain of substituted players wearing number 9 - Isak & Heskey - scored the opening goal of the match.
