    Like father like son (Video)

    It’s not often that a truly great player’s offspring goes on to live up to the same sort of standards as their fathers.

    Ian Wright, a great goal scorer in his era had a hand in conceiving Charlton Athletics’ Bradley Wright-Phillips and no disrespect to Bradley, but he’s not a patch on his old man.

    Perhaps things will be different however with Enzo Zidane, no points for guessing who his Dad is. Check out this video of him scoring for the Real Madrid youth setup against Athletico Bilbao in a friendly match recently.

    30 yards out he shrugs off a challenge from a defender before firing an absolute howitzer over the keeper and into the roof of the net. Pop would be proud!

    Speaking of famous dads Sergio Aguero’s son has a lot to live up too. Diego Maradona is his grandfather and some bloke called Messi is his godfather. It’s like a who’s who of Argentinean footballing greats.

    No pressure kid!
