The past 20 years have brought the footballing universe some exceptional brothers, but Shepparton's own Kuol family might have a set to top the lot.
While 18-year-old Alou Kuol has already made his mark with 19 senior NPL goals this season, younger brothers Teng and Garang are waiting in the wings, desperate to show what they've got.
Garang, 14, put the world on notice at the weekend with a wicked double off the bench for the Goulburn Valley Suns' under-20s, while Teng, 16, has also found the back of the net in the age group this year.
With a whopping 44 goals between them across three age groups this campaign, opposition players do not sleep well the night before facing these frighteningly-talented boys.
Youth Academy: How has the season been going so far for you boys?
Teng Kuol: In the under-16s we have been doing pretty well, we are sixth on the ladder at the moment. We have been scoring more goals than other seasons before and the team is playing a lot better.
Garang Kuol: I reckon we have been good this year — I’d say I have been doing better than previous years. I think I have been braver and had the urgency to keep developing.
YA: What has it been like getting a taste of under-20 football?
TK: It has been a really good opportunity to play under-20s, I am really fortunate to be a part of the GV Suns. They play a lot differently in terms of shape, and it is a lot more football and a lot faster compared to under-16s.
GK: I am just grateful to be picked in the squad and gain that experience, but it is much quicker.
YA: What was it like scoring two goals at the weekend Garang?
GK: I was over the moon to be able to score two goals for the under-20s. I was just happy to get the draw for the boys. For the last one the ball came over the top and I was lucky enough to put it in. The first one was pretty neat, it was a decent goal.
YA: You’ve scored for the under-20s too Teng?
TK: Yeah, it was pretty good, it was on the counterattack against Whittlesea.
YA: How has playing for the Suns helped you boys?
GK: It has taught us how to develop our game and how to become a better version of yourself.
TK: I think it is a big step up from SJSA, regional comp. There is a lot more diversity in the playing style in all the different teams.
Kuolity control
Combining with fellow wonderkid Brandon Giaccherini, the Kuols make the most dynamic attacking line-up in the NPL's under-16 division, the trio having helped itself to a combined 74 goals this term.
It is little wonder the Suns' under-16s are their highest-ranked age group, sitting sixth in the league after a stellar season.
Appearing to be on the same path as their unstoppable brother, Teng and Garang will be making an impact in the senior grades before too long.
YA: When everyone thinks of the Kuol family your brother springs to mind, what has he taught you both about football?
TK: He doesn’t really talk about his game a lot, he shows it through his own game-play. When I am watching seniors, it is really good to be able to see my own brother performing well.
YA: The front three in the under-16s have been banging in goals for fun, what do you put that down to?
GK: Hard work and dedication, and that want for your teammate to score a goal and not being greedy.
YA: What is it like playing together?
GK: I reckon it is good because the chemistry is there and we are able to tell each other what to do before the game.
YA: Have there been any coaches who have influenced your game?
GK: I’d say Tommy Giuliani and Billy Marshall. (Marshall) knows what he is doing and he is trying to help me and the whole team to develop our skills.
YA: What sort of footballer would you say you are like?
GK: I would probably say I am more of a dribbler than a finisher.
TK: I see myself a bit like (Kylian) Mbappé I think.
Tiki-taka
YA: What has been your favourite footballing moment?
GK: Probably my goal for Shepparton in the preliminary finals against Cobram. We were 2-1 down, I got the ball, took on a couple of players and had a shot from halfway and it went in. We ended up winning on penalties.
TK: It would have to be my hat-trick against Oakleigh Cannons in 2016. Me and this kid were tied on goals for the goal-kicking thing and I just had to score one goal and I would be in front. I got three and we won 3-2.
YA: What has been your least favourite footballing moment?
GK: Losing 6-0 to Richmond three years ago.
TK: Probably losing earlier this season to Bentleigh Greens in the under-16s. I think it was 5-1, but at half-time it was only 1-1. A lot of the players including myself had already played for the under-18s and we all played really poorly in the second half.
YA: Who is your footballing idol?
GK: I would say Sergio Agüero. His style of play is sort of like mine. He’s quick, he can dribble.
TK: Ronaldo. His upbringing and his hard work to get to the top, I reckon that is pretty interesting.
YA: If you could play for any team, who would it be?
GK: Probably a team that isn’t the best, but not the worst. Burnley, Crystal Palace, those types of teams.
TK: Probably Arsenal because I have been following them since a young age.
YA: What is next for you both in terms of football?
TK: To constantly progress and hopefully one day I can become professional.
GK: Just develop my skills and get to the highest level I can.
