Being in Berlin, I missed the Socceraid game but followed it on Twitter and no surprise, the Scots were very happy to see England lose on penalties.

I'm not naive and I do understand why the Scottish people don't want to follow England due to the inherent media bias. However, I was still amused at some of the vitriol as well as some funny tweets.

Soccer Aid (socceraid) was a charity game betwwen some English ex-players and celebrities against a Rest of the World XI to raise money for unesco. The star of the show was the goalkeeper for England Jamie Theakston.

To star with just some funnies from @themanwhofell

Well done Al Murray! You've made James Corden look like a comedy genius.

"Many of these children in Africa can only afford one replica Man Utd strip per season, and it is often the away kit. Every penny counts."

I am awaiting the publishing of the "Clive Tyldsley: my conversations with Woody Harrelson" book.

Some interesting stuff as usual from @A2bworldcup

Take That bring down Westlife. Penalty, saved by Seaman.

Thought there were two balls on the pitch there, but it was just a cutaway shot of James Corden.

England score by cleverly not passing to any of the duffers during the move. Sleekit.

Genuinely puzzled to see big Joe still on. Has to be the most cumbersome and least co-ordinated proper sports champion of all time.

And then the lovely Scottish bile.
