Angry Ginge sends X-rated message to Carlos Tevez after Soccer Aid injury
Rest of the World defeated England 5-4 at Old Trafford with Carlos Tevez - formerly of Man United and Man City - and Angry Ginge starring for their respective teams.
YouTuber and Manchester United supporter Angry Ginge has hit out at Manchester City icon Carlos Tevez after being on the receiving end of a nasty injury on Sunday evening.
Those two men were competing for England and the Rest of the World respectively in the annual Soccer Aid for UNICEF match at Old Trafford. Despite leading 3-0 at one stage, the hosts collapsed in the second half - upon the introduction of Tevez who bagged four goals for his team.

YouTuber and TV personality Big Zuu would win the game for Rest of the World XI late on, as he celebrated with his own version of Cristiano Ronaldo's iconic 'Siuuu' celebration. However, there was a moment in the second half that appeared to show the fun element of Soccer Aid replaced by a more competitive streak.

As Angry Ginge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, and Tevez battled for possession on the edge of the England area, the two players went to ground. Replays appeared to show that the Argentine frontman was unhappy with the challenge from Angry Ginge and appeared to have a slight kick out at the defender before realising where he was and shaking hands with the 23-year-old.
However, it appears that Angry Ginge was not best pleased with the challenge by Tevez after the final whistle. Sharing a picture of his leg badly cut in the dressing room, the YouTuber and streamer wrote: "Cheers Tevez, t***."
Despite suffering the injury and his team also losing the game, Angry Ginge was named player-of-the-match by comedian and Manchester City supporter Jason Manford on commentary. And. although he had a confrontation with Tevez, the 23-year-old did not let this ruin his enjoyment of the evening.

Addressing his 1.2m followers on Instagram, Angry Ginge posted: "Well, we might not have won but man-of-the-match at Soccer Aid - mental. It's a Sunday, but the postman still delivered baby."
