The best-known remains Eidur Gudjohnsen, whose CV displays a UEFA Champions League winners' medal with FC Barcelona and stints with Bolton Wanderers FC, Chelsea FC and AS Monaco FC. Perhaps the most notable match was a friendly against Estonia on 24 April 1996 in Tallinn. During the second half of this match, Eidur Gudjohnsen entered as a substitute for his father Arnor Gudjohnsen, a German Bundesliga striker who was with RSC Anderlecht and FC Girondins de Bordeaux. This marked the first time that a father and son played in the same international match.
