A Mak scoring against Scotland, get it?

There were, without exaggeration, 80 bajillion jokes that surfaced on the internet after Robert Mak opened the scoring for Slovakia against Gordon Strachan's men on Tuesday night. You see, "Mc" or "Mac", are elements of many Scottish surnames, stemming from the Gaelic word for "son of". So imagine the bloody odds that someone with a similar name found the net against the Scots. Irony-loving football fans were simply falling over one another as they rushed to be first to point out the humorous quirk of the goal and its scorer. God help us all if Lukas O comes off the bench to score a second. (There may or may not be a Slovakia international by the name of Lukas O). https://twitter.com/54Beats44/status/785919269519314945 https://twitter.com/EilidhPinkChic/status/785919320023064576 https://twitter.com/GoJonnyBananas/status/785919364348379140 https://twitter.com/essiterry/status/785919527112564736 https://twitter.com/YidoBuckler/status/785919610302394368 https://twitter.com/GAMBFC/status/785920081448558592 https://twitter.com/Scrivener30/status/785920483233497088 https://twitter.com/leekpee/status/785920521271640064 https://twitter.com/davey_lad/status/785920575038447617 https://twitter.com/harryhharman/status/785922524408348672 https://twitter.com/sweirz/status/785923600091975680 https://twitter.com/Paul_Ellis147/status/785923718161821696 https://twitter.com/elswedgio/status/785924352600604672 https://twitter.com/Mitch_Al/status/785924958916644864 Catch up with the latest episode of Football Friday Live:
