Exeter City defender Craig Woodman has often made the headlines this season, arguably being one of the club's most important players, and his praise has lead to a slight change on his Wikipedia page.

Back in December, Grecians boss Paul Tisdale compared the 34-year-old to the German legend Franz Beckenbauer, which made headlines worldwide. Now, Woodman's name on Wikipedia has been amended to "Craig Beckenbauer Woodman".

As well as this name change, under his Exeter City career profile, a line reads "He fired a worldy against Scunthorpe at the end of the 2013-14 season to knock the Irons off their perch (even though they won League 2.)"

The comparison came after City's 3-1 win at Cheltenham just before Christmas. After the match, Tisdale said: "Craig Woodman is playing like Beckenbauer at the minute he's just unbelievable at the moment, I don't know what's happened, but I think he could play with a broken arm he's that good."

The left-back returned to action on Sunday night as he started City's 3-3 thrilling draw at Carlisle United, after suffering a broken arm back in March.

Tisdale admitted that the left-back is now a doubt for the second leg after sustaining a knock in the game.

He said: "Craig hasn't played a game for a while so he was challenged a fair bit physically and then he got a nasty knock just before he came off, so how that will affect him now going forward I don't know.

"We'll have to assess that on Monday and Tuesday."
