Manchester, United Kingdom (19 September 2013) - A rather
unusual encounter took place yesterday ahead of this Sunday’s much anticipated
Manchester Derby. Usain Bolt, the
World’s Fastest Man, caught up with Manchester City’s star striker Sergio
Agüero to give him a unique lesson in speed.
Having identified Agüero as City’s most dangerous player,
the Jamaican United fan pretended to help Sergio pep up his pace, but as the
session progressed it became apparent he had an ulterior motive. His passing was excessively poor, and saw
the Argentinean running around all over the place in his attempts to keep up.
Instead of sharpening the striker’s sprinting skills as suggested, Bolt seemed
to be trying to exhaust Agüero and influence the Manchester Derby in favour of
his team.
After the training session, Agüero commented, “Usain was
terrible at the beginning, but I realized after a while that he was just trying
to wear me out. When he started to play properly, he showed some skills though.
He is not good enough to play for City, but I think he would have a good chance
of getting into the United team.”
Usain Bolt admitted, “Sergio’s caused United a lot of
problems over the years, so I thought I’d drop in on him to see if I could tire
him before the game on Sunday. But turns out he’s pretty fit. I have to admit I was impressed with his
qualities, United definitely need to keep him quiet but I’m sure they can do
that and get three points.”
The Bolt Agüero training video was released by PUMA, who
launched the latest edition of the evoSPEED 1.2 football boot this week. The new purple and orange evoSPEED boots
featured in the film was worn on pitch by Sergio Agüero himself for the first
time this week.
