Jan Linssen

Jan Linssen (19 January 1913 – 2 November 1995) was a Dutch footballer who was active as a forward. Linssen played his whole career at Feijenoord and is known as the player who has never made a single foul. The only referee that fouled him during a match was Dirk Nijs who did this as a joke and to become the only referee that ever fouled Linssen. Linssen played once for the Netherlands national football team, in 1938 against the Dutch Indies and also scored a goal, however the match was not officially recognized as such.

gollark: The next thing to do is to rework the content model in some slightly underdetermined way, actually add revisions, change the UI, ignore this list of things to do and randomly do something else instead, and add files.
gollark: Do you mean MediaWiki and redirects? If so, sure.
gollark: Admittedly this is not incredibly *useful* in that it doesn't really open any previously nonexistent possibilities, but people asked for redirects so I assume they do want this, and it wasn't hard to add.
gollark: It's also case and spacing-insensitive.
gollark: No, it's bee.
