Soccer Aid 2023 LIVE! England vs World XI charity match stream, latest score and goal updates today
The world’s biggest charity match returns tonight as sports stars and celebrities face off for UNICEF. England will be looking to reverse a four-game losing streak to World XI, having lost on penalties at the London Stadium last year, and now trail in the overall head-to-head record.
World XI, though, have the pedigree in the dugout with newly appointed Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino rallying his troops while Stormzy will be tasked with coming up with a much overdue win for the hosts, with help from Harry Redknapp, Emma Hayes, Vicky McClure and David Seaman. Former Lionesses’ star Jill Scott is the captain, with Usain Bolt again taking the World XI armband.
The likes of Liam Payne, Danny Dyer and Tom Hiddleston will be joining Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and others for England, facing off against Tommy Fury, Kem Cetinay, Hernan Crespo, Roberto Carlos and others. Kick off at Old Trafford is at 7.30pm BST, so stick with us!
Live updates
6min: A slow start to proceedings, it’s fair to say. Wilshere is looking to make things happen in the centre for England, but otherwise World XI are fairly comfortable in possession.
3min: A first shot on target and it’s for England. Adam gives the ball away, allowing Payne to pounce and have a shot from the edge of the area. It was a bit speculative and easy for Foster.
Kick-off!
1min: A little later than advertised but… here we go!
And here come the teams! We are minutes away.
It’s almost time for kick-off. The teams are back in their dressing rooms.

“Amid all the glitz and the glamour, the reason why we are all here is to raise money.”
Danny Dyer says he is “still recovering from Wednesday” after seeing West Ham win the Europa Conference League.
He’s done well to get up to Manchester!
