Michael Schumacher found his shooting boots when he scored with a rasping 25-yard drive as the world champion driver captained a Grand Prix select team to a 6-1 win in a charity football match in Imola.

Schumacher was the star of the show in front of 3,000 fans as his side beat a team consisting of selected sports journalists and stars from the world of entertainment.

Although the German got his San Marino race weekend off to a winning start, he was upstaged by Jordan driver Jarno Trulli and Benetton's Giancarlo Fisichella, who scored two apiece.

More than £8,000 (pounds) was raised for charity after Schumacher's second appearance as a footballer in as many races.
