The 16st striking beast, who can bench press 180kg, netted against the club he supports yesterday but the Dons fell to a 2-1 defeat.
He vowed to get Steven Gerrard's shirt - which he duly did - and has spoken out about the moment he met his idols.
Akinfenwa last night said: "I can't put it into words - it's a dream. I've been a Liverpool supporter since I was five years old.
"To see the likes of Gerrard and [Martin] Skrtel and the whole of the Liverpool team and to score against them, it was written in the stars and I can't put it into words.
Akinfenwa, at 16 stone and ranked as the world’s strongest footballer in the Fifa video game series, was happy to pose for photographs at the final whistle with Gerrard's shirt and enjoyed his moment in the limelight.
