England celebrated a triumphant 6-3 victory over World XI in the Soccer Aid match, raising an impressive £15,049,590 for charity. The game, held at Stamford Bridge, saw former Chelsea star Eden Hazard shine on his return to the stadium, alongside impressive performances from Theo Walcott, Jermain Defoe, Joe Cole, and Alessandro Del Piero. However, some viewers, including YouTube star KSI, criticized the event for focusing too much on the ex-footballers, taking away from the intended spotlight on the celebrities.

> “I’m delighted that Soccer Aid raised a significant sum for a worthy cause; it always brings a smile to my face,” KSI remarked. “However, as a football match, it was tedious and uninteresting. The ex-pros were overly self-indulgent, constantly dribbling and shooting from improbable distances. I would have preferred a game featuring influencers and entertainers, which would have been more competitive and enjoyable to watch.”

Other viewers echoed similar sentiments, expressing disappointment in the lack of involvement from the celebrities and the selfish play of some ex-pros. Despite the criticism, the event successfully raised a substantial amount for charity, showcasing the power of football in bringing people together for a good cause.
