Gary Lineker

The Climb Podcast with Stuart Webber and Jonathan Parramint

In this week’s we get to talk to Gary Lineker, one of England’s greatest ever strikers.
Lineker made his England debut in 1984, earning 80 caps and scoring 48 goals over an eight-year international career.
His international goals-to-games ratio remains one of the best for the country. His six goals in the 1986 FIFA World Cup made him the tournament's top scorer, receiving the Golden Boot.

Lineker was again integral to England's progress to the semi-finals of the 1990 World Cup, scoring another four goals. He still holds England's record for goals in the FIFA World Cup.

Since 1990 he’s presented the flagship programme Match of the Day and is also the BBC’s lead presenter.
