Mallorca Football: 1000 Up?

have currently scored 999 goals

Mallorca's football team – Real Club Deportivo Mallorca - is on the brink of a momentous occasion. They have currently scored 999 goals in their time in the Spanish first division and they're hoping that they'll surpass the big One-oh-oh-oh in next week's match at Villareal, which El Statto will tell you is their 837th encounter in La Liga.

Whoever scores the thousandth will go down in the annals of history along with Samuel Eto'o who bagged number 500 against Real Madrid in 1999.

So, come on you vermilions!
