The Messi of Malta?
Michael Mifsud will mark his 120th cap for Malta by taking on England at Wembley, but the Maltese striker is no stranger to delivering on the big stage.
He was a hero for Coventry after scoring two goals at Old Trafford to knock Manchester United out of the League Cup in 2007.
Following this feat he was given the nickname 'The Messi of Malta' by an Italian newspaper but Mifsud says that he is "just a normal football player"
