Usain Bolt‘s speed certainly isn’t limited to the track … ’cause the Jamaican sprinter flew past his opponents to score an impressive goal in a charity soccer match on Sunday!!
The 8-time Olympic gold medalist ditched his running spikes for some cleats at the Soccer Aid for UNICEF event … and he wasn’t just there to show face — he balled out!!
Bolt — fittingly rocking a No. 9.58 jersey to represent his world-record 100-meter dash time — broke things open 23 minutes into the competition … zooming past the last line of defense to put the ball in the back of the net for team World XI.
The best part of the highlight came when Bolt celebrated the goal — first, he did English soccer star Marcus Rashford‘s signature move … before switching up to his famous “To Di World” point alongside former French pro Patrice Evra.
Bolt’s teammate Tommy Fury was the first to run up and congratulate him … and it was smooth sailing for their squad the rest of the match, thanks to Robbie Keane‘s pair of goals.
We lost… but more importantly we raised a shed load for charity 🖤 thank you @socceraid pic.twitter.com/iFPCyvDyyr

Former One Direction member Liam Payne wasn’t all upset about England’s 4-2 loss to World XI … considering the game raised more than $14 MILLION for the humanitarian organization.
Bolt previously flirted with the idea of playing soccer in the States — remember, he told us back in 2018 he’d listen to offers from MLS teams if they came with the money.
