Scotland midfielder Matt Ritchie has hilariously been compared to an American Football mascot - to the delight of social media.
A picture of Wichita State mascot WuShock was posted online by one punter who pointed out the fact that the giant yellow bundle of wheat bears a striking resemblance to the Newcastle star.

The picture racked up almost 10,000 likes and more than 1,000 shares since it was published on Friday.
