That's a Fowl! Soccer-Loving Rooster Scores Goal on Virginia Farm

An athletic rooster named Juggernaut in Suffolk, Virginia, may hold untapped soccer potential, as revealed by this video posted on April 14 by his owner, Ashleigh Madison.

Madison’s video shows her son passing a ball to Juggernaut who, using his feet, fires the ball back and past Madison’s son.

“He’s a natural kicker,” Madison told Storyful. “He even scores during the video!”

Madison said on Facebook that Juggernaut’s love for the game had only become apparent to the family that day. “Does your rooster play ball??,” she wrote, laughingly. Credit: Ashleigh Madison via Storyful
