Scanning is a reading technique and it means locating particular facts while reading the text. In comparison with skimming which is a rapid look-through, scanning is the process of using keywords and cues. The last option could be confused in a way that you are reading faster. Indeed, the sentence contains a fact about football and it could be a loophole not to pay attention. Therefore, the correct answer is the last option - D.
