Cricketer Brian Lara, retired Swedish footballer Henrik Larsson, boxer Joe Calzaghe and Manchester United’s Ryan Giggs lined up together on Saturday as Rest of the World teammates to take part in the Robbie Williams-organized UNICEF Soccer Aid charity match at Old Trafford.
The footy festivities had all the fixins – including manbag arrivals, bromantic goal celebrations and an exciting penalty shoot-out. Aside from Luis Figo’s full head of lush, silky hair, we’re pleased to see the amount of men past their prime who are letting their hair age naturally.
Our SMOTM (sexiest Man of the Match)? It was a tough, three-way tie between Larsson, Giggs and Redknapp.
Westlife's Shane Filan & Nicky Byrne SMOTM
without a doubt
awwwh giggsie looks adorable! ♥
as did zizou.. yuuuum!
It was a really entertaining game (more than the United Relief one). So much fun! Shearer to Sheringham was a class goal (I felt like I was in a time warp!). Good job, everyone at Soccer Aid!
SMOTM ?! …Nicky Byrne,without a doubt ♥
How can you leave Sami Hyypia out of the Sexiest Man of the Match contenders?! He is the perfect man!
Was a great event – really enjoyed it. Jamie Theakston made some great saves!
xx
Dominic Cooper?! His football skills kinda suck but I love him and was so happy to hear he was a gooner!!!
Larsson!!! *clings* I miss him!!
Zizou did look fine,fine as well.
Ohhh, i love my Henke! Proud to be swedish.
was just about to say the same, LOVELY!
The SMOTM Was Ryan Giggs.
Zidane, Olly, Redknapp, Nicky Byrne & Larsson Looked Fit.
Olly Murs Played Really Well, & I Also Think That The Celebrity England Goalkeeper Made Some Really Good Saves He Should Be Englands Number 1
(: x
My fave part was Damien Lewis being nutmegged by Zidane and loving it. Hot guys for a worthy cause is a total win/win situ…….oh and Jamie Theakston needs to get on a plane to S.Africa right now….4 penalty saves in a shoot out!!!!!!! lol, nice job fella.
James Kyson Lee was soo funny!! Taking a throw in a corner!! hahahah LOL, Ando!!!
LOL james corden was so into it!! and poor blonde guy from westlife!! kept getting fouled!!!
My SMOTM was Simon Baker. God, I love him.
Zidane was a close second though.
I loved all the old man business going on yesterday, it was like heaven!
