We reckon Dominic Calvert-Lewin wears the smallest shin pads in football. Just look how small they are!
The Everton forward starred last night as he bagged a brace in England's comfortable 5-0 victory over San Marino at Wembley Stadium.
But it wasn't just his goals that got fans talking about his latest showing.
Social media erupted when a picture of Calvert-Lewin's tiny shin pads surfaced online.
He then tweeted the same image on Twitter following the match which sent the online football community into overdrive.
Eat your heart out, Jack Grealish.

A second wrote: "DCL protecting his shins with his old Motorola Razr's."
A third added: "Nokia 3310 down each sock."

It's not the first time Calvert-Lewin has rocked tiny shin pads as he wore the same - if not similar - ones earlier in the season.
He has scored 19 goals in all competitions for the Toffees this term and four goals in six international caps since making his England debut last year.
Long live the tiny shin pads.
