What Jamie Carragher and Liam Payne did with England teammates to prepare for Soccer Aid 2022

Stars from the world of football and celebrity are coming together in aid of charity UNICEF once again tonight as Soccer Aid 2022 takes place on Sunday.

The annual charity football match has been providing memorable moments for just over 15 years now as an England side and a World XI team go head to head on the pitch. This year Liam Payne will captain the Three Lions for the first time against Usain Bolt’s World XI and the One Direction star has been keeping team spirits high by throwing a team bonding party in their hotel on Saturday evening alongside Liverpool legend and teammate Jamie Carragher.

The England team, which is made up of celebrities and football legends, sang karaoke and enjoyed laughs ahead of the game, with Carragher live streaming the party to his 1.6 million Instagram followers. "This is a great bonding exercise, isn't it?" Carragher asked Payne during his live stream, to which the singer cheekily replied: "This is part of it - keeping everyone together, keep everyone's heads up - and we'll deal with the hangover in the morning."
