HERTFORDSHIRE , England, June 2 (UPI) -- English soccer legend Wayne Rooney doesn't miss a photo opp on the pitch, but that extracurricular skill seeps into charity dinners as well.
While attending the annual Lions and Roses EFF charity dinner over the holiday weekend at the Sopwell House, Rooney ran into all-time great Pelé. Pelé followed suit by snapping a photo of the dangerous striking duo before settling down for some entertainment.
Later, Rooney and Gary Neville teamed up with pop star James Bay to sing 'Hold Back the River' and Frank Sinatra's 'My Way,' according to reports.

"Selfie with @WayneRooney 10 10 #London #EFF #LionsAndRoses," Pelé wrote, making a play at the duo's shared number.
