A test of your maths skills to finish off:
Take Robbie Fowler's first squad number at Liverpool, add Mick McCarthy's age at the time of his first match in charge of the Republic of Ireland, multiply that by the number of goals scored by Davor Suker at the 1998 World Cup... and what's the answer?

Can we all just take a moment to revel in the gloriousness of Tom McNulty’s moustache?
@Link: And is unibrow
@Link: got that pure guess hadn’t a clue who he was
I used to take the Mick out of letchkov and Lombardo for their horse shoe hair styles.little did I know twenty years later I ended up like them!
Sampadoria were great in the nineties. Loved Lombardo the bald eagle !
@Mattress Dick: Mancini and Gullit were unreal
@Aido: batistuta?
@Aido: cancel that. I just googled him. It was fiorentina
@Kevin O’ Brien: everyone can make massive mistakes now and again!
@Mattress Dick: yeah mind Gazza went there in midd 90,s
Romania knocked Argentina out of World Cup ’94. Not Bulgaria. They knocked out Mexico in the Last 16.
@chalk8down: That’s correct, but the question asks who did they defeat during the tournament. It only mentions that they eliminated Germany. Bulgaria also beat Argentina during the group stages.
@Paul Dollery: pretty dumb question though given the other two options played each other in the final.
@dear_mud: But that’s irrelevant. Again, the question doesn’t ask if they eliminated them. Italy did actually lose a game (to Ireland) in the tournament, despite making the final.
9/10. The token women’s soccer question got me.
6 outa 10
9 out of 10.
Question 10 is wrong: (23 + 61) x 6 = 504.
@GOOПΞɌΛDΛM: Mick was 37 when he took the Ireland job in the 90s
@David Clements: I thought he looked 50. No wonder I got the maths and other questions all wrong?
7/10 a few tricky ones.
9/10
Said to myself, Sampdoria played Barca at Wembley in the 92 European Cup Final. So they won Serie A the year before.
Then picked ’93 !!!!!.
