Shearer visits University of Texas women's soccer team

If you want to get to the top in soccer, getting tips from the best is always welcome.

The University of Texas women’s soccer team enjoyed a special guest on Friday as Alan Shearer, the Premier League’s all-time leading goalscorer, dropped by to talk to the players and coach.

Shearer scored a record 260 Premier League goals for Blackburn Rovers and hometown club Newcastle United, as well as winning the title with Rovers in 1994/95, and was in Austin ahead of Premier League Mornings Live at the weekend.

And he dropped by the university to give a talk to the coach and players of the women’s soccer team as well as answer questions and give his insight as a former player and coach.

“What a lovely experience to spend my afternoon with such a LEGEND in the game! Master of Finishing, Great Leader and Wonderful Man!” said head coach Ange Kelly on Twitter.
