Steven Gerrard’s 15-year-old cousin became first England player to score a hat-trick against Brazil (and he plays for Man City)... meet Bobby Duncan

The good news for Steven Gerrard fans is that, shortly after his retirement, another member of the legendary midfielder's family appears to be following in his fabled footsteps.

Gerrard's 15-year-old cousin, Bobby Duncan recently became the first ever player at any level to score a hat-trick for England against Brazil. Like Gerrard, he also grew up in Huyton.

But the bad news for Liverpool fans is that Duncan is already on the books at Manchester City.

While his younger brothers Ollie and Freddie are both on the books at Liverpool, for the under-13s and under-10s respectively, Bobby slipped through the Reds' net.
