Gary Lineker retired from international football with 80 caps and 48 goals, one fewer than Bobby Charlton's England record.

Media Career

Following retirement from professional football, he developed a career in the media, initially on BBC Radio 5 Live, as a football pundit before replacing Des Lynam as the BBC's anchorman for football coverage, including their flagship football television programme Match of the Day. Gary was also a team captain on the acerbic sports game show, They Think It's All Over.

Lineker presented most of the 2006 World Cup matches for the BBC, chairing a panel of pundits which included Alan Hansen, Alan Shearer and Martin O'Neill.
