Soccer Aid fans were left fuming during the first half of the charity match at the London Stadium on Sunday as YouTube star Chunkz was taken off penalty duty despite winning the spot-kick for England.
The Three Lions forward had earlier given away a penalty after bringing down Patrice Evra in England’s box, with TikTok star Noah Beck smashing past David James from the spot to give the World XI a 1-0 lead after 22 minutes. Chunkz didn’t need long to make amends though, going down himself in the box following a challenge from Beck three minutes before half-time.
Chunkz picked up the ball immediately and seemed to be in line to take the important spot-kick before he was called away from his teammates, with reality star Mark Wright instead stepping up and squeezing the ball past Chelsea legend Petr Cech in the bottom left corner of the goal to level the game.
