Shane Long - The Story Behind the Fastes...

The Ringer
About this episode

This week on the Fozcast we are joined by the man who has the fastest goal ever in Premier League history, scoring in 7.69 seconds and you never guess who was in goal, our very own Ben Foster! Of course it’s Ireland international Shane Long! Shane has been a guest we’ve wanted to have on the Fozcast for a long time and he didn’t disappoint. He told us all about what the Irish squad get up too when they go away on international break, which is traditionally very different from the English culture. We also look back on his career, specifically that Southampton squad in 2015 where they had the likes of Virgil Van Dijk, Sadio Mane, James Ward-Prowse, Dusan Tadic and many more. Shane also chats to us about his move to Hull and how it didn’t go as smoothly as he hoped…


Once again we hope you enjoyed this episode of the Fozcast! If you would like to see us live on September 22nd at William Aston Hall in Wrexham, joined by Elliot Lee and James McClean, get your tickets down below! 👇🏼
