Some of sports biggest stars including
Frank Lampard, Jose Mourinho and
Cristiano Ronaldo were all given the
honour of being included in the new
Guinness World Records book and it may
comes as a surprise to see Chris Smalling
handed two awards.
New York City star Lampard was
presented with his for the most Premier
League teams scored against, after former
club Chelsea became victim No 39.
Legend Andy Cole previously held the
record with 38, but the 37-year-old
trumped him after coming off the bench
for Manchester City to fire home a
trademark strike at the Etihad Stadium.
Lampard was delighted to be featured in
the book and spoke about being a huge
fan.
He said:
'I set goals throughout my career
to break records and this is one I never
imagined to get. I am a big fan of the
books and always read the books with my
daughters before bed so to feature in it is
amazing.
'It was a weird feeling when I scored but it
did get me the record so I am also very
happy with the goal.'
Jose Mourinho was the man in charge
when Lampard broke his record but it's not
all bad for the Chelsea boss, after he was
awarded with four different awards.
The Guinness World Records book team
visited the Cobham training ground to
present the 52-year-old with his
certificates, which included: The most
Points in a Premier League season (95),
most Champions League's won at different
clubs (two), youngest manager to reach
100 Champions League games (49 years
12 days) and most games unbeaten at
home in the Premier League (77).
I'm now more
focused on winning the next game than on
what I've done in the last 10 or 15 years.'
Manchester United defender Smalling also
bagged himself two records after scoring
the fastest goal in the Premier League by a
substitute from kick-off, when he netted
against Burnley in just five minutes, nine
seconds last season.
He scored again to earn himself a second
record, for the most goals in the Premier
League scored by a substitute in the first
half to join the likes of Lampard, Mourinho
and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Of course you can't forget Real Madrid
star Ronaldo, who scored his 27th hat-
trick in La Liga - overtaking club legend
Alfredo Di Stefano - and is also the most
followed athlete and person on both
Facebook (over 100 million likes) and
Twitter (over 27m followers).
