Moon debuted for England in a win over Wales in 1888 and same year kept a clean sheet against Scotland.

His record as being the youngest goalkeeper for England remained until August 2012 when this was taken by Jack Butland of Birmingham City who was 64 days his junior.

He captained his country for the last of his seven internationals, when England took on Scotland at Ewood Park.

A solicitor by profession, Moon was also a capable cricketer and played as a hard hitting wicket-keeper batsman.

He made 17 not out on debut against Surrey in what would be his only first-class innings as Moon's second match was washed out after a day.
