Angry Ginge's spat with Carlos Tevez heats up as X-rated Soccer Aid remark made
Manchester United fan Angry Ginge made an X-rated revelation about Carlos Tevez during his live stream, having clashed with the former Argentina star during Soccer Aid Angry Ginge continued his running feud with Carlos Tevez by labelling the football legend a "f***ing traitor" after their Soccer Aid clash. Popular streamer Angry Ginge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, lived out his childhood dream of playing on the Old Trafford turf during Sunday's charity game. The lifelong United fan played in defence for England during Soccer Aid 2025, which meant he faced former Red Devils striker Tevez, who represented the World XI. Tevez won two Premier League titles and the Champions League with United but infamously joined rivals Manchester City in 2009. He instantly became a loathed figure at the Theatre of Dreams and severed all ties by celebrating against his former club during a Manchester Derby. That was evidently still fresh in Burtwistle's mind as the YouTuber saw his chance to get revenge during Sunday's friendly game, flying in with a crunching challenge on the Argentine. He got the ball but Tevez was left unhappy with the aggressive nature of the challenge and made sure to leave something on Ginge, slightly kicking out at the defender. Tevez quickly realised where he was and decided to then shake hands with the 23-year-old. For Ginge, however, the bad blood remained beyond the final whistle as he took to Instagram to post a photo of a nasty gash on his leg courtesy of Tevez. His caption read: "Cheers Tevez, t***," echoing his thoughts on the Boca Juniors icon, having once admitted that he "can't stand" him. And he wasn't done there, later revealing on one of his live streams that he had his match-worn Soccer Aid shirt signed by everyone on both teams, except Tevez, who he slammed. The internet personality said: "Look at that. Signed by every single person on the team. And the away team. Bar one man. The f***ing traitor. Tevez ain't signing my f***ing shirt. Not in a million years. No chance." Tevez had the last laugh, however, scoring four goals in just 15 minutes to lead the World XI's comeback. He was booed after each goal by the crowd but appeared to revel in his role as the pantomime villain, cupping his ear and pointing to the name on the back of his shirt. He managed to level the game, which paved the way for musician Big Zuu to score the late winner and secure a memorable 5-4 victory. Zuu emphatically celebrated with his own version of Cristiano Ronaldo's Siu celebration. Ginge, meanwhile, had the consolation of being awarded Player of the Match over Tevez. His tireless defensive work included diving across the goal to stop France World Cup winner David Trezeguet from scoring the equaliser.

Who won Soccer Aid? Score, controversial moments and huge amount raised for UNICEF
The iconic Soccer Aid charity match took place last night at Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium with an impressive amount of money being raised for charity as the celebs took to the pitch Soccer Aid 2025 delivered high drama, featuring early injuries, stand-out performances and one of the most surprising comebacks in the charity event's history. Stars from across the worlds of sports, film and television came together once again this weekend for the "world's biggest charity football match". Created by Robbie Williams in 2006, Soccer Aid for UNICEF brings the nation together in support of children across the globe, raising more than £100 million to date to help give every child the best possible start in life. The latest showdown at Old Trafford - the home to Manchester United - where a team of former pros and celebrities represent England against the Soccer Aid team World XI FC, was a complete sell out, with thousands of fans filling the iconic 'theatre of dreams' to watch the star-studded action. England came out aiming for back-to-back victories after last year's triumph at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge. But it was the World XI who came out on top, clinching a 5-4 win, with the final goal being scored by rapper and TV chef Big Zuu. Joining him in the celebrations was former Argentina and Manchester United striker Carlos Tevez, who delivered an impressive performance scoring four goals for the World XI. Before the winning team lifted the trophy in the air, former Take That icon and co-founder Robbie announced that this year's event had raised a massive £15,280,163. Speaking to the crowds in Old Trafford and viewers at home, he said: "As an original founder of Soccer Aid, I couldn't be more proud of the volunteers, organisers and talent, to the team on the ground; everyone who buys a ticket or makes a donation. Together, over the years, we've raised over £121m. Here's to many more games and even more fundraising." Since the charity match was first founded in 2006, it has raised an impressive amount - over £106 million. Before the match got started, host Dermot O'Leary had to "profusely" apologise to ITV viewers after Tyson Fury had a blunder live on air. The heavyweight champion, who was the England team Manager, swore live on ITV while he was giving his team a pre-match talk in the locker rooms. He said: "Let them know how good we are. We are England. We are f****** Spartans. We are Spartans." Presenters Alex Scott and Dermot apologised afterwards, with Scott saying: "What can I say about Tyson Fury? We do apologise for the swearing, but it is Tyson Fury, we don't know what's going to happen." This Morning presenter Dermot then said: "We do profusely apologise." Tyson was not the only star to swear live on air with Harry Redknapp, who was the manager for World XI FC, dropping the F-bomb while addressing his own team. As soon as the game got started, it was heartache for former boxing star Tony Bellew as he was removed from the game in just five minutes, and was seen hobbling along in a lot of pain towards the tunnel. Tony was only one injured starred, as his pal and former I'm A Celeb co-star Sam Thompson had been unable to join the starting line-up or to get onto the pitch until the last minute, due to being injured during his Match Ball Mission, which saw him cycle from Stamford Bridge in London to Old Trafford in Manchester to deliver the all-important match ball. The TV personality was able to get a couple minutes on the pitch, playing in the final few minutes of the charity match.
