While I don't agree that this should now be an annual thing (it used to take place every two years), this was actually the best Soccer Aid for a while.
Maybe it was because I knew more of the celebs this time than in recent years, maybe it was because the game was more interesting, I don't know. There was just something that felt a bit more 'renewed/galvanised' about the format in 2023.
So yes, do keep putting your money into it ITV. Do continue to give us fun moments like when Lee Mack tries to tackle a pro footballer from the past.
Just maybe set the donation amounts a bit lower, because £20 seemed a bit of a big ask.
