This year, among the famous faces taking part in the match was Leon Edwards, who is a professional mixed martial artist and has been fighting in the UFC since 2014. However, instead of his usual fighting attire, Edwards donned the goalkeeper jersey for the World XI team.
Despite the excitement surrounding his participation in the match, Edwards’ performance in goal did not quite go according to plan. He conceded two goals during the game, with MMA fans taking to social media to comment on his performance. However, the World XI team managed to secure a 4-2 victory in the end, with Robbie Keane scoring a brace and Love Island star Ken Cetinay also finding the back of the net.
Despite his less-than-stellar performance in goal, it is worth noting that Edwards is a highly skilled fighter and has achieved great success in the world of mixed martial arts.
Edwards’ participation in Soccer Aid highlights the importance of charity events and the impact they can have on raising funds for important causes.
Overall, while Edwards may not have been the star of the show during Soccer Aid, his participation in the event has helped to raise awareness for a worthy cause and has shown that even professional fighters can step outside of their comfort zone and try something new for a good cause.
