Glasgow Rangers midfielder Steven Davis reached an incredible milestone this week, the Ibrox star becoming the most capped player in the United Kingdom.

The 36-year-old picked up his 126th cap in Northern Ireland’s goalless draw with Bulgaria at Windsor Park on Wednesday night.

Davis has surpassed England legend Peter Shilton, the previous record holder on 125 caps, and is now level with Slovakia icon Marek Hamsik and Italy legend Paolo Maldini.

On Sunday, the Gers icon was in action against the United States in Belfast, a game which the visitors won 2-1.

And on Thursday, in response to the Irish FA’s message of congratulations for Davis, US Soccer responded by sharing a photo of the player holding up a jersey with the number “126” on the back.

Bears, NI and US fans alike praised the USMNT for their classy gesture, as well as congratulating Davis for his achievements:

With the international break now over, Davis will return to Ibrox as Rangers prepare to face Cove Rangers in the Scottish Cup third round.
