Soccer Aid<\/a> 2025 – LIVE!
The World<\/a> XI are celebrating victory in the latest edition of Soccer Aid<\/a>. After their dominant streak of victories in the planet\u2019s biggest charity football match was ended at Stamford Bridge 12 months ago, they got back to winning ways in a dramatic nine-goal thriller at Old Trafford on Sunday night, with Big Zuu<\/a> proving the hero as he dispatched the all-important final effort late on to avoid the tension of a penalty shootout.
That memorable match-winning moment came after Carlos Tevez<\/a> reprised his role as the pantomime villain at the home of former club Manchester United, scoring four after being sent on at half-time as the World XI recovered from a 3-0 deficit to eventually triumph 5-4, extending their record to eight wins in the 14th edition of Soccer Aid.
Jermain Defoe had notched twice off the bench to put England<\/a> in a commanding position and become Soccer Aid\u2019s all-time top goalscorer in the process, with Wayne Rooney scoring the earliest goal ever in Soccer Aid before Toni Duggan doubled the lead on the stroke of half-time. However, they simply could not live with Tevez as he carried the World XI to glory.<\/a>

That could be that…
84 mins: <\/strong>Big Zuu promised he would score tonight and might just have notched the goal to win Soccer Aid for the World XI!
