Soccer Aid 2025 kick-off time tonight
The England and World XI FC sides will once again go head-to-head all in the name of charity
Soccer Aid is back after it was last held in London at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge in June 2024. But this year, all the action will take place at Manchester United's very own Old Trafford.
The "world’s biggest charity football match" will once again see former footballers, singers, actors, and more are set to take to the pitch, all in the hope of raising money for UNICEF.
Created by Robbie Williams in 2006, Soccer Aid for UNICEF brings the nation together to help children worldwide have the best possible start in life, so far raising more than £100 million.
The money raised helps UNICEF deliver vital programmes which provides therapeutic food, healthcare, safe spaces and crisis support around the world, all helping children grow up safe, healthy and able to play.
The England and World XI FC sides are set to go head-to-head once more and the competition is as fierce as ever, particularly after England took the crown last summer, clawing back a win for the first time in a few years, leaving the World XI with a narrow 7-6 lead in the overall standings.
