Anthony Ujah: No More Kidding Around

Anthony Ujah is a Nigerian international and he's played at the highest level in Germany but if you put the strikers name into a search engine you won't be greeted by a goal...but by a goat.

He plays in front of new supporters for the first time this weekend and he'll be trying not to get over excited if he scores on his league debut for Werder Bremen because he knows how quickly things can get out of hand.

Late last season he celebrated a goal by pulling the horns of the billy goat mascot of his former club, FC Koln, and fans were furious.

He told Sportshour's Steve Crossman how the incident led him to embarking on a public relations tour with the animal in question to ensure supporters knew there were no hard feelings.
