YOU could play footie with ROO

WE have teamed up with Coca-Cola to give you the once-in-a-lifetime chance to play a game of street football with Wayne Rooney.

Rooney has just launched Coca-Cola Street Striker — a huge online competition to find the UK’s best street footballers.

For the next three months, 13 to 18-year-olds will be challenged to film their street skills, culminating in a ‘bin shot’ and upload them on to the official Coca-Cola Street Striker website www.coca-cola.co.uk/football.

Players must use their skill to stylishly land a football in an empty bin — the ultimate test of street footballing precision!

The best 50 entries, as chosen by Wayne Rooney and a panel of judges, will be invited along with a friend to play in a once-in-a-lifetime game of street football with Rooney in August.

Wayne Rooney has always been a keen street footballer and is looking forward to leading the search.

He said: “I used to play loads of street football when I was younger and I’m looking forward to taking on the winners when we meet in August.

“Everyone should get out to the park or wherever it’s safe and have a kickabout whenever they can!”

The Sun has an extra five exclusive places for our readers and a friend each to attend this great event. It is easy to enter, just text your name and your video clip of your shooting skills to 63000 by midnight on Thursday May 31.

The top 10, voted by SunSport, will be posted on thesun.co.uk/sport.

You can then vote for your favourite shooter online and the best five can take a friend and play in the big game with Wayne!

No purchase necessary. MMS charges at your standard tariff rate.
