ITV Soccer Aid viewers can't believe their eyes as Robbie Williams wears sequinned double denim to perform Angels

Soccer Aid founder Robbie Williams literally dazzled as he took to the pitch to perform one of his most-loved songs. The pop superstar added sparkle to the star-studded UNICEF charity match as he belted out his 1997 classic Angels.

The 48-year-old father-of-four performed the emotional ballad while the crowd at West Ham's London Stadium waved their lighters in the air. And viewers watching the ITV coverage at home were wowed by his bejeweled double denim outfit.

Covered in multi-coloured jewels and sequins the Take That legend sparked nostalgia as fans were reminded of the nineties. And viewers were divided on the outfit choice as they flocked to Twitter to have their say.
