Nottingham Forest defender Eric Lichaj has got his dog after a social media campaign convinced his wife Kathryn to give in. And the American has named his new pet Gunner after he scored twice to help Forest to a 4-2 win and knock holders Arsenal out of the FA Cup at the City Ground on Sunday.


He had said that his wife had promised him a dog if he scored a hat-trick this season. Lichaj took to Twitter and posted a picture (left) of Gunner and wrote: "Wanted to show everyone the newest member of the Lichaj family.... Gunner. Thank you."
