Premier League

You’re a Premier League superfan if you can recognise the legends in this all-star team

SEVEN Premier League legends turned out in a five-a-side All-Star match at Universal Studios, Orlando.

The team faced off against an FC Series team that had the likes of Brazilian legends Cafu and Jefferson.

The team featured (back row – left to right) Miguel Gallardo, Juan Pablo Angel, Eddie Johnson, Ahmed Elmohamady, (front row – left to right) Stephen Warnock, Mario Melchiot, Alan Smith and Joe Cole

Cole won Man of the Match


He scored a great goal


Former Leeds and Man Uts ace Alan Smith featured for the team


Brazil star Cafu featured for the FC Series side

The Premier League side ran out winners after the thrilling match ended 8-7 in their favour.

Other than the goalkeeper, Miguel Gallardo, the team boosted some of the most recognisable players from the Premier League over the last 20 years.

Former West Ham, Chelsea and Liverpool star Joe Cole was the star of the team and picked up man of the match due to his performance.

Cole, 41, also managed to score a brilliant goal which came from some individual magic as he managed to round his marker before firing home.

He was helped out former Manchester United and Leeds ace Alan Smith.

Smith, 42, recently admitted that he still suffers issues from his leg break in 2006 after being hit by a shot by former Liverpool defender John Arne Riise.

One of the other stars was former Liverpool, Leeds and Bolton defender Stephen Warnock.

The 41-year-old laced his boots back on for the first time in a while as he is usually seen working as a pundit covering the Premier League across multiple networks.

The last two former Prem stars were ex-Chelsea and Birmingham ace Mario Melchiot and Fulham striker Eddie Johnson.

Melchiot, 46, featured 130 times for Chelsea and spent a year at the club alongside Cole before he left in 2004.

Along with Cafu and Jefferson the FC Series team included the likes of former Juventus ace Amauri, Botafogo ace Pedro Certezas, Brazil futsal star Falcao and midfielder Renato Abreu.
