Club: Universidad de Concepcion, Chile Age: 35 Position: Forward Caps: 57 Goals: 15
The veteran forward became known to a wider audience last year after celebrating his stoppage-time winner against the USA in the Concacaf Nations League by climbing on to a TV studio platform and embracing his idol,, external Thierry Henry.
“He was there, and it came out of my heart to go hug and celebrate with him. It was totally natural,” Waterman says.
His emotions also took over in the build-up to the England game when he pushed and shoved team-mate Jose Luis Rodriguez during a disagreement on Friday.
Waterman had to be restrained by other players as he continued to take issue with Rodriguez, though head coach Thomas Christiansen played down the incident.
Waterman went six years without a cap from 2013 but has been a squad regular in recent years and is competing with Jose Fajardo for a place in the side.
Waterman started against Ghana and came on as a substitute during the defeat by Croatia.
