Soccer Aid 2026: Five best moments from Damson Idris goal to GK Barry’s missed pass

  • Soccer Aid 2026 took place on Sunday with star-studded teams representing either England or World XI. The match raised a record £16.4 million for Unicef.
  • Toy Story 5 stars Tom Hanks and Tim Allen brought out the match ball at the charity football match, with coverage of the game at the London Stadium on ITV beginning with a Toy Story-themed intro clip.
  • F1 actor Damson Idris found the net for England after 31 minutes with an excellent finish. He then dropped like a fish in celebration before shushing World XI coach Usain Bolt.
  • In another viral moment, influencer GK Barry - who replaced actor Tom Hiddleston in the 41st minute of the game - missed a ball from singer Tom Grennan while celebrating a pass with the crowd.
  • After England secured a 3-2 victory, Wayne Rooney and Angry Ginge lifted the Soccer Aid trophy, which was presented by Olivia Colman.
