The European football season is approaching towards its end, while England’s County Championship is in its early stages. In between all this, little-known Tom Moores has impressed Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea. The Spaniard replied to County Championship’s Twitter handle that compared Nottinghamshire’s wicketkeeper Moores’ acrobatics to de Gea’s. Moores took two spectacular diving catches in Nottinghamshire’s defeat against Yorkshire. De Gea replied to the County Championship’s Twitter handle with applause.
