‘Best night of my life’ – Linfield ballboy relives viral celebration

Linfield ballboy Jackson McClean says he was in disbelief as he sprinted on to the Windsor Park pitch to celebrate Shayne Lavery’s Europa League wonder goal.

As Lavery delivered a beautiful finish to a stunning solo run in the Blues’ 3-2 first-leg win over Qarabag, the 16-year-old fan could barely contain his joy – with what followed going viral.

“When Shayne curled it in with his left foot I couldn’t believe what was happening. The adrenaline kicked in and I just started running,” he said.
