Tyson Fury swore live on air just moments into Soccer Aid - forcing the hosts to apologise. Tonight, as the Unicef charity match coverage kicked off live on ITV, the hosts went into the dressing room to find out who was in the England starting 11.
However, as managers Tyson Fury and Harry Redknapp stood in the centre of the dressing room by the iconic three lions emblem, Tyson swore as he said: "We are f***ing Spartans."
"We do apologise for the swearing. It’s Tyson we don’t know what’s going to happen," host Alex Scott said as they headed back to the main studio for some commentary on the starting team.
Ahead of the match, Tyson said: "The prospect of leading my England team to victory this June fills me with just as much excitement as any heavyweight fight. Everyone knows that I am a huge Manchester United fan too, so it's even more special for me that the game is at Old Trafford this year, and I get to manage one of my heroes, Wayne Rooney."
Wayne added: "I'm a big boxing fan, so to do it alongside Tyson Fury is fantastic. We have this in common - we'll both be taking it incredibly seriously. It's great to lace up the old boots again - and see some old friends."
On the England team, Gary Neville and Paul Scholes are on the line-up as well as One Direction star Louis Tomlinson. Steven Bartlett. and former Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart will play. Also, Jermain Defoe, Steph Houghton, Toni Duggan, Aaron Lennon, Jill Scott, Sam Thompson, Sam Quek, Sir Mo Farah, Paddy McGuinness, Dame Denise Lewis, Bear Grylls, Tom Grennan, Alex Brooker and Angry Ginge are part of the team - with Tyson and Harry now announcing their starting 11.
