Showboating Dog
Which Liverpool striker was outplayed by a German Shepherd?
Nando meets his match in footballing mutt
In embarrassing news for every defender who has ever let Fernando Torres score past them, Hank the German Shepherd managed to keep El Niño away from the net for a full two minutes during a visit to the West Lancs Dog Display Team in Formby.
Hank, who rubbed it in by wearing his preferred Steven Gerrard strip, has actually been trained to play football, and had the honour of playing at Anfield in goal at a half time display last year.
