Paul Scholes has revealed his knee is "f*****" after suffering an injury while playing in Soccer Aid at Old Trafford on Sunday evening.

Scholes was part of the England side that lost 4-2 to the World XI, with the Manchester United icon scoring a 20-yard screamer. The World XI have now won the charity event, which has raised more than £14million for UNICEF this year, five times on the bounce.
