Andy Carroll scores twice on debut for fourth-tier Bordeaux
Former England and Liverpool striker Andy Carroll scored twice on his debut for French fourth-tier club Bordeaux in a 2-2 home draw with Voltigeurs de Chateaubriant.
Carroll, 35, dropped two divisions in France’s football pyramid when he moved from Ligue 2 team Amiens to join Bordeaux earlier this month.
Six-time Ligue 1 winners Bordeaux surrendered their status as a professional club in July after being relegated out of Ligue 2 down to Championnat National 2 because of bankruptcy.
Bordeaux were 2-0 behind at half-time following two first-half goals from Babacar Leye just before the break, but Carroll got one back in the 72nd minute, connecting with a low volley at full stretch.
The away side went down to 10 men in the 79th minute with Leye sent off and Carroll headed in an 88th-minute equaliser, rising well to convert a left-wing corner.
Across his Premier League career, Carroll scored 54 goals in 248 appearances during spells with Newcastle, Liverpool and West Ham.
For England, Carroll scored twice in nine caps, one of which was against Sweden at Euro 2012.
Bordeaux are 15th of 16 sides in their division, with three draws and one loss, although they have one or two games in hand on all the other teams.

Jhon Duran: Is Aston Villa striker the best Premier League substitute?
Villa were having an off-day, 1-0 down to rivals Wolves on Saturday when Duran replaced Jacob Ramsey in the 62nd minute.
The home fans greeted his arrival with a wall of noise.
Just 11 minutes later he won a loose ball on the edge of the box and fed Morgan Rogers who in turn set up Watkins for Villa’s equaliser.
After Ezri Konsa put the hosts ahead in the 88th minute, Duran struck in the fourth minute of added time following a well-timed run and calm finish after Morgan’s pass across goal.
“He’s a big talent,” team-mate Konsa told BBC Match of the Day. “We see it every day in training. It’s important for him to stay humble and we’ll help him do that. He’s still young.”
The stats make impressive reading.
Six of Villa’s past 12 Premier League goals have been scored by Duran after he came off the bench.
The 20-year-old has scored a goal every 80 minutes across his league career. Only Manchester City’s Erling Haaland has a better ratio with a strike every 79 minutes (minimum two goals scored).
Duran’s three winning goals as a substitute – which equate to one every 33 minutes – are the joint-most for winners in a single Premier League season.
But he still has some way to go to match Adam le Fondre’s record of eight as a sub, winners or not, in a single campaign.
While Jermain Defoe (24) has the most all-time Premier League goals as a substitute. Duran, who has eight, is not even in the top 40.
