Brothers Playing Against Each Other

Post by wiseone »

The MacAllister brothers are the latest pro footballers to play against each other. I can think of a few others:

Neville brothers (Man Utd v Everton) - they were their teams captains as well!

Boateng brothers - Germany 🇩🇪 v Ghana 🇬🇭

Xhaka brothers - Switzerland 🇨🇭 v Albania 🇦🇱

Pogba brothers - Man Utd v St Etienne

Toure brothers - Man City v Liverpool

Ferdinand brothers (Man Utd v West Ham)

Ayew brothers - have been teammates (Swansea and Crystal Palace) and played against each other in France



Are there any others?

The Hernandez brothers (Lucas and Theo) played against each other - both at left back in PSG's 3-0 Champions League win v AC Milan last Wednesday (October 25, 2023).

Another one on October 24. Rasmus Højlund played for Manchester United against his old club FC Copenhagen. His younger brother Oscar Højlund was in the Copenhagen team and won a 94th minute penalty for Cophenhagen after McTominay fouled him. Oscar is the twin brother of Emil Højlund - who also plays for Copenhagen.
