   • 2013, Daniel Taylor, Rickie Lambert's debut goal gives England victory over Scotland (in The Guardian, 14 August 2013)[1]

     Lambert had been on the pitch only three minutes when he rose, in the style of a modern-day Nat Lofthouse, to score with the arching, powerful header that completely changed the emphasis on a night when Roy Hodgson's team had, at times, exhausted the patience of their home crowd.

2. Generally accepted.

   Of course, modern-day theories debunk that idea.
