ITV viewers claimed they were left facing a 'major' dilemma on Sunday night as they were engrossed in Soccer Aid but had one eye on another channel as things promised to kick off big style on Love Island.
Soccer Aid moved from Old Trafford to a new home of West Ham's ground of the London Stadium as Harry Redknapp and Vicky McClure took charge of England, while the World squad had Arsene Wegner and Idris Elba as their gaffers. As stars like Mark Wright and Liam Payne joined footy legends like Jamie Carragher and Joe Cole for the Three Lions and ex pros like Roberto Carlos and Cafu were joined by famous faces like Mo Gilligan and Martin Compston in the World starting XI.
The first half of this year's fundraiser proved to be compelling watching as the Soccer Aid 2022 teams did battle, with TikTok star Noah Beck giving the World team the lead from the penalty spot and comedian and host Alex Brooker made history as the first player with a disability to ever play in the tie.
