Middlesbrough set to field both their youngest and oldest players ever in the same match
Middlesbrough are set to make history in their FA Cup third-round tie against Peterborough on Saturday – by fielding both their youngest ever player and their oldest ever player at the same time.
Sixteen-year-old defender Nathan Wood is set to play in the match at the Riverside, while 40-year-old goalkeeper Dimitrios Konstantopoulos will also feature.
Boro boss Tony Pulis urged supporters to turn out and see the 'amazing situation' for themselves because 'it will never happen again'.
'That must be unique,' said Pulis ahead of the game. 'You might have one or the other but to have both on the same pitch... I've never heard of that happening before.
