World's fastest man gives Cristiano Ronaldo some sprint tips

Saturday, May 16, 2009

The fastest man on the planet advised speedy winger Cristiano Ronaldo on his running technique as Usain Bolt dropped in at Manchester United's Carrington training ground on Friday.

The 22-year-old Jamaican, a huge Red Devils fan, spent the morning with the United players and he took the opportunity to advise Ronaldo how to adjust the running technique that torments defenses but often sees him tumble to the ground too easily.

Bolt, taking part in a 150-meter street race in Manchester tomorrow, said: "I explained to him a few things about when he is running and reaches top speed he starts to tip over, he always does that.

"I let him know if he brings his foot on the center of gravity, or even in front of him, it will be much easier. He will be much better and he will go faster for longer."

The Olympic sprint king, who captured the 100 and 200-meter world records at Beijing last year, will be at Old Trafford Saturday and he will also appear on the pitch at half-time to present United's player of the year award.

"I want to run on the pitch and score in the net if they let me," Bolt added. "It will be something for me to have pictures of.

"Who knows, maybe I can be a Man U player in the future!"
