Dreams do become reality; just watch Bolt dribble

By Stuart Lowman

Considered the greatest sprinter of all time, retired Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt holds the world records for both the 100m and 200m sprint events, and eight Olympic gold medals to boot.

But those who’ve followed the flyer will know that running was not his only passion.

He has a love for football (his favourite team is Manchester United) and has often expressed his dreams to play professionally.

So, whilst the Theatre of Dreams may be a stride to far, 32-year old Bolt did strap his boots on and played for Australian outfit Central Coast Mariners this week.

Enjoyed getting some playing time tonight with the Central Coast Mariners FC. Thanks to all the fans who came out to support. #CCMFC #dontthinklimits #workinprogress pic.twitter.com/NM5pRMVLlf
