26 03 2019

Good Morning Britain co-hosts Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan have joined 2019's Soccer Aid for UNICEF match, and will take on the roles of co-managing celebrity teams including Usain Bolt, Didier Drogba, Jamie Redknapp, Robbie Williams and Ben Shephard, working alongside former football managers Harry Redknapp and Sam Allardyce.

This years event, taking place at Stamford Bridge, will be broadcast on ITV on June 16, and Jamie Redknapp commented 'Even though we’re on opposite teams, it’s an honour to be able to play against my dad in Soccer Aid for UNICEF this Father’s Day. Some of my best memories of my childhood are playing with my dad and being with him at the football, and it’s an incredible feeling to know we’re making more playtime possible for kids around the world by getting together for this special game'.
