World Cup Players 11:44 - Aug 27 with 2383 viewsDaniel

With Tommy Smith being an international player that's played at a World Cup, it got me thinking whether any other U's players (past & present) have represented their country at a World Cup.

I can think of two - one that played post-U's and another that played pre-U's. Anyone care to guess/know more?

DR Congo/Zaire have only been to one World Cup - 1974 before Lua Lua was born.

Did Graham Barrett ever make full international with Eire?

Make that four players then:

Mark Kinsella
Tommy Smith

Chris Coyne played for Australia in qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup, but never made the squad for the tournament.

Graham Barrett made 6 apps for ROI, but none at a World Cup.

Con Blatsis - 2 apps for Australia, but none in a World Cup
Richard Garcia - YES. He made 2 appearances for Australia in the 2010 World Cup, but still not a player I was thinking of.
Marcus Bean - 1 app for Jamaica, not in a World Cup (they have only played at 1 World Cup, 1998)
Allan Hunter - 58 app for Northern Ireland between 1969—1979, but they never qualified for a World Cup in this time.
Stewart Houston - 1 app for Scotland in 1975, not at a World Cup
Alan Ball - 1966 legend, but never kicked a ball for us.

Bongani Khumalo.


YES

42 apps for South Africa, including World Cup appearances when they hosted in 2010. He scored against France, so may be the only player to play for us and score at a World Cup, but I suspect someone who hasn't been guessed yet may have a World Cup goal or two.

Teddy Sherringham.


YES

He's the obvious one I had thought of. 51 apps for England, 11 goals, but none of them at a World Cup. He played at France 98 and Japan/South Korea 02.

There's still a player I have thought of that none else has mentioned yet.

He's an anomaly (to put it politely). He was in the Scotland squad for the 1982 World Cup, but never played.

Clinton Morrison also went to a World Cup, but never played - 2002 Republic of Ireland.

He's certainly something and I think we all know a song about it.
