England 4-3 World XI (Carlos Tevez)<\/p>\n

After Jermain Defoe scored twice, Carlos Tevez completed his hat-trick by scoring from a free-kick, bending his shot around the wall and beating Paddy McGuinness on the goalkeeper\u2019s side. <\/p>\n

<\/a>How the scoring started<\/p>\n

England 1-0 World XI (Wayne Rooney)<\/p>\n

A gift from the World XI defence but a moment of pure joy for Wayne Rooney as he scored on his return to Old Trafford. The former Manchester United striker was mobbed in hugs from his England team-mates. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Carlos Tevez steals the show<\/p>\n

What a night for former Manchester City and Manchester United striker Carlos Tevez, who clearly enjoyed being back at Old Trafford and soaked up the boos that greeted his every touch. <\/p>\n

He responded by scoring four goals, pointing to his ear and touching the name on the back of his shirt. Did Tevez realise this was a charity match? I\u2019m not sure but it was great to watch. Soccer Aid heritage. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Total raised for UNICEF<\/p>\n

Robbie Williams announces that this year\u2019s Soccer Aid for UNICEF match raised an incredible \u00a315,280,163. <\/p>\n

Soccer Aid was played to raise funds for UNICEF – with the goal of providing support for children around the world and contributing towards health care, clean water and vaccination projects.<\/p>\n

Every donation up to \u00a35m was doubled thanks to the Children\u2019s Investment Fund Foundation.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Angry Ginge named Player of the Match<\/p>\n

A remarkable match from Angry Ginge, who set up Jermain Defoe\u2019s first, cleared David Trezeguet\u2019s shot off the line, made a handful of big blocks and clearances, and almost started a fight with Carlos Tevez. <\/p>\n
