Rooney Makes History with Fastest Soccer Aid Goal
Former Manchester United Star Stuns Fans, Scores Record-Breaking Goal Against Former Teammate at Old Trafford
Wayne Rooney, the England and Manchester United legend, has made the whole world sit up and take notice after his spectacular performance at the Soccer Aid 2025 match held at Old Trafford on June 15, 2025. “Rooney has done it again!” shouted one excited fan from the stands, as the striker scored the fastest goal in the history of Soccer Aid—just four minutes into the game against the Rest of the World XI.
“This is the kind of magic that makes football special,” commented a local sports analyst, as news of Rooney’s achievement spread quickly across Nigeria and beyond.
BBC Newsround and Daily Mail were among the top news outlets that reported on the historic goal, describing it as a “masterclass in finishing and timing.” Many Nigerians, especially young football fans, stayed glued to their screens to watch the event unfold.
What made the moment even more memorable was that Rooney scored against his former Manchester United teammate, Edwin van der Sar, who was in goal for the Rest of the World XI.
“Scoring past van der Sar at the Stretford End—that’s the stuff of legends,” said a football coach in Lagos. “It shows that Rooney still has the touch, the vision, and the hunger to win.”
The Soccer Aid match is not just about football; it is a global charity event that brings together celebrities and football legends to raise money for children in need.
“Every year, Nigerians look forward to this match, not just for the football, but because it’s for a good cause,” explained a Lagos-based football fan. “Seeing our favorite stars in action, and now a record-breaking goal, makes it even more exciting.”
Sports commentators and analysts have been full of praise for Rooney’s achievement.
“This is a record that will stand for a long time,” said one expert. “Rooney has proven that true talent never fades, and legends always rise to the occasion.”
The goal itself was the result of a clever pass and a quick sprint past defenders, before Rooney calmly slotted the ball past van der Sar. “The way he finished it off was pure class,” remarked a match reporter.
For many young Nigerian footballers, Rooney’s performance is a source of inspiration. “When you see legends like Rooney still making headlines, it gives you hope and motivation,” said a young player from Abuja. “It shows that hard work and dedication pay off, no matter how old you are.”
The fastest goal in Soccer Aid history is now Rooney’s, and fans are already calling it one of the most memorable moments in the event’s history.
“This is the kind of drama and excitement that keeps us loving football,” said a supporter from Port Harcourt. “Rooney has once again reminded us why he is a true legend of the game.”
In summary, Wayne Rooney has written his name into the history books with his record-breaking goal at Soccer Aid 2025. “It’s a night that will be remembered for years to come,” said a commentator. “Rooney’s magic is still alive, and football fans everywhere are celebrating.” The excitement, the charity, and the passion for the game have all been highlighted by this unforgettable moment, making it a truly special occasion for Nigerians and football lovers around the world
