SEVEN-year-old Diagho Cullen fulfilled every football fan's dream when he won the chance to carry out the England flag at last week's friendly against Greece.
Diagho, a pupil at Chesham Primary School, joined the country's biggest football stars at Old Trafford after his dad Joel Malach won a BBC Radio Manchester competition answering five questions about the England football team.
Diagho, of Lowes Road in Bury, travelled to the Manchester ground for the match and was given his own England tracksuit to take home before enjoying dinner and using the changing rooms to prepare for his once-in-a-lifetime experience. He joined five other children carrying the England flag and six Greece flag bearers.
Joel said: "Diagho had a fantastic time. He was nervous before as there were 40,000 people at the grounds and it was broadcast on BBC1 so there was a big television audience, but he did really, really well."
