There first names are also the first names of some sportsmen and women

Emma Stone is the daughter of Steve Stone who played for Nottingham Forest under Brian Clough. Michael Sheen played him in the Damned United.

John Goodman sounds very much like Don Goodman who used to play for Wolves. He’s appeared in several films by the Coen Brothers. As has Matt Damon. Brother used to sponsor Manchester City who used to be a football team based in Manchester.

Not sure who the bloke with the goatee is but many footballers have had goatee beards, most famously Alexi Lalas.

Second picture down is blank for me. Spurs drew a blank recently in the Champions League final against Liverpool.

So the connection is..., hang on, what was the question again?

So what links them.

Gizza clue Sarge? Is it to do with their names, or films they’ve been in. Sports Quiz is a fairly broad subject!

The second one was in Hollow Man, that’s not a sports film

They've all played sports stars in biopics:

John Goodman - Babe Ruth
Margot Robbie - Tonya Harding
Ben Foster - Harry Haft
Matt Damon - can't remember the guy's name, but the film is Invictus
Emma Stone - Billie Jean King
Michael Sheen - Brian Clough

forgot about the Lance Armstrong movie to be honest.

I'm hoping the Harry Haft movie will be good - Harry Haft's story makes for particularly interesting, albeit grim reading.

He was a Polish Jewish teenager during the second World War, who was sent to a concentration camp, where he was trained to be a boxer by the SS. He was then forced to fight other inmates in matches in front of the Nazis, and whoever lost was murdered. Harry won 70+ fights before the dissolution of the camp, then escaped a death march. Eventually emigrated to the US and fought Rocky Marciano.
