England 0 World XI 3: Love Island’s Kem Cetinay scores twice and Lee Mack breaks duck in dominant Soccer Aid win
KEM CETINAY scored twice as the World XI romped to a dominant win over England in this year’s Soccer Aid.
Lee Mack finally got off the mark in front of a packed Etihad stadium - helping his side seal a comfortable 3-0 win.
More than £13million was raised from the charity fixture in aid of Unicef with teams featuring a mix of celebrities and football icons.
Shaun Wright-Phillips, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney and Lionesses legend Fara Williams were among the former Prem players representing England.
And Roberto Carlos, Clarence Seedorf, Patrice Evra and Nigel De Jong were among the stars on a World XI competing in Soccer Aid which celebrates its tenth anniversary this year.
Before the game, England saw two of their players pull out.
TV presenter Roman Kemp withdrew due to a positive coronavirus test and Top Gear’s Paddy McGuiness pulled out after suffering an injury.
Many of the best moments of the clash occurred in the second half with all three goals netted after the break.
Former Love Island star Cetinay, who is currently on Celebrity MasterChef, buried his first beating The Masked Singer host Joel Dommett in goal.
And Kem registered his second in the 73rd minute before Lee Mack finally got his long-awaited Soccer Aid after missing dozens of opportunities in previous fixtures.
The comedian, who swapped teams to join the World XI squad, netted his first-ever goal in the annual charity match in the 89th minute.
The climax of the match saw Robbie Williams reveal that a whopping £13,014,769 had been raised from this year’s match.
Celebs who played a part in the World XI include Olympic sprint hero Usain Bolt, popstar Chelcee Grimes and TV presenter Ore Oduba.
