Usain Bolt Score Two Goals In His Football Debut


Jamaican multiple Olympic Champion Usain Bolt scored two goals on his debut as a professional player for Australian A-League team Central Coast Mariners.
He scored the two goals in the second half for the club in a friendly.
The Jamaican scored the Mariners’ third and fourth goals in a 4-0 win over Macarthur South West and celebrated with his trademark lightning bolt pose.
Bolt joined the A-League club in August for an “indefinite training period”.

“My first start and scoring two goals, it’s a good feeling,” Bolt, 32, said.
“I’m happy I could come here and show the world I’m improving. I’m keen to be a Mariner, to play my best and get into the team.”
For his opening goal Bolt ran on to a chipped ball played by Scotland striker Ross McCormack, held off the defender and finished powerfully low past the goalkeeper.

He capitalised on a defensive mix-up for his second, with Macarthur defender and goalkeeper colliding to leave Bolt to tap in from close range.
