Molly-Mae Hague has mocked her fiancé Tommy Fury after his huge Soccer Aid blunder.

The professional boxer was among the celebs participating in this year's match, which aims to raise funds for UNICEF. Tommy, 25, played for the World XI alongside stars like Roman Kemp, Jason Manford, Tony Bellew and Usain Bolt, as well as ex-footballers Eden Hazard, Roberto Carlos and Petr Cech. Unfortunately, Tommy's team were defeated by England, with the final score being 6-3.

This marked Tommy's second year playing at Soccer Aid, but fans were quick to slam his performance on the pitch. He suffered two big blunders after being brought on as a sub. He stepped up to take a throw-in, but instead of throwing it over his head, he performed an underarm throw. Photos and videos of the moment were shared on social media, with fans questioning Tommy's understanding of football.

Molly-Mae, 25, who was at Stamford Bridge cheering her boyfriend on from the stands, joined in the fun and reshared a post about Tommy's throw. She simply wrote: "Iconic x." After the disastrous throw, Tommy was then given a chance to kick the ball into the box. However, he managed to miss the ball entirely and kick the air.

Fans took to X to mock Tommy's footballing skills, with one writing: " Tommy Fury should definitely stick to boxing." A second said: "Why's Tommy Fury playing bowling at Soccer Aid." Meanwhile, another typed: "Tommy Fury taking an underarm throw-in might be the highlight of this year's Soccer Aid." Despite some criticism, many supporters rallied behind him, with one fan posting: "Bro is trying his best in a Charity match and everyone is slating him grow up he's tried that's all that matters."

Another added their voice of support: "Respect for showing up in the last events. Funny but at least he tries and does it for a good cause." The 2024 Soccer Aid event was a smashing success, raising an incredible £15,049,590 for UNICEF, which works tirelessly to provide aid to children across the globe. With this year's contributions, the total funds raised for the charity since the inception of Soccer Aid in 2006 have now surpassed £100 million.

Steven Bartlett, the man behind 'Diary of a CEO', was crowned Player of the Match after his stellar performance for England. He netted two goals in what was his debut Soccer Aid appearance.

England's score sheet was lit up by Joe Cole, Jermain Defoe, Theo Walcott, and Ellen White, who etched her name in the history books as the first female player to score in Soccer Aid. On the World XI side, Eden Hazard, Alessandro Del Piero, and Billy Wingrove contributed to the goal tally.
