The First Time ….., Part Ninteen

2- The first time that an Italian Manager faced his home Nation as opposing Manager was in 2009. Giovanni Trapattoni, the Former Italian National Team Manager (2000 to 2004), faced Italy as the Manager of Republic of Ireland on April 1, 2009 (Italy 1-Republic of Ireland 1, WC qualifier).

 4- The First time that a non-British player joined a British side for more than £1 Million was in 1990, when Liverpool signed Israeli striker Ronnie Rosenthal on permanent basis (he had been on loan for a few months) for £1.1 Million from Standard Liege.

5- The first time that a Scotland player was sent off in an International on home soil was in 1972. Peter Lorimer (Leeds United) was sent off in the 84^th minute in a World Cup qualifier at Glasgow vs. Denmark (2-0) on November 15^th, 1972. (Incidentally Lorimer had scored Scotland’s second goal in that match).

It is also worth mentioning that Billy Steel (in 1951) was the first ever Scottish player to be sent off, but Lorimer was the first one at home.
