Time waits for no man… except Jay-Jay Okocha.

Macron Stadium played host to charity exhibition game in aid of the Bolton Wanderer’s Supporters and Community trusts on Tuesday afternoon with some familiar faces turning out for the worthy cause.

The match featured the likes of Jussi Jaaskelainen, Kevin Nolan, Ricardo Gardner and Fabrice Muamba, but hands down, it was cult hero Jay-Jay Okocha who stole the show.

The 42-year-old bagged himself a hat-trick and dazzled the crowd with his trademark flair that saw him become one of the most popular Bolton players of his generation.

His first goal though, was undoubtedly his best, as he rolled back the years with a stellar top-corner effort that had supporters partying like it was 2004.
