Many people have had to make the mad dash to the hospital to witness the birth of their child, but Wigan Athletic's Ryan Colclough was in such a rush that he did not even have time to change out of his kit.
The 22-year-old winger enjoyed an evening to remember as he scored twice in the Lactics' 3-0 win over Doncaster Rovers on Tuesday, a result that leaves them just one point behind leaders Shrewsbury Town in League One.
And Colclough, still dressed in all his Wigan finery, made it to the hospital, with the club posting a picture of him holding his newborn son on Twitter.
Morning all!Morning What a beautiful moment last night, all our best to Ryan and family November 22, 2017
Wigan assistant Leam Richardson said: "As soon as the second goal he was off the pitch, because his head was somewhere else.
"We're all men, we're all individuals. Some of the players wouldn't have gone, they'd be still in the dressing room now."
