Real Madrid and France legend Zinedine Zidane took part in an exhibition match between third division side Amiens and the Variety Club of France in support of the Plus de Vie charity.

Fans all over the stadium were chanting "Zizou! Zizou!" as Zidane lined-up a free kick at the edge of the area.

The midfield maestro then swept the ball right into the corner of the net, much to the delight of the supporters, who erupted into a wave of cheers.

This isn't the first time that Zidane has played in a charity match since hanging up his boots in 2006. He famously bagged a brace against Ronaldo and Friends in Morocco last year.

Interestingly enough, it was in Morocco where Zidane met with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, promising him to return to the Spanish capital if he was elected as president.

Here's a video of the free kick Zidane scored:
