McFly guitarist sets up Alan Shearer's Soccer Aid header McFly Tickets
Celebrities and legends combine for Robbie Williams' match
McFly's Danny Jones lived out a football dream last night (September 8) by setting up a goal for England football legend Alan Shearer at London's Wembley Stadium.
The guitarist provided the pin-point cross which allowed the former footballer to head home the goal which brought an England team, mixing former pros and celebrities, level with a Rest Of The World team.
The game, held for UNICEF's Soccer Aid at the home of English football, featured the likes of Craig David – who was voted man of the match – Gareth Gates and former Westlife singer Brian McFadden on the two teams.
Soccer Aid was created by Robbie Williams, who was forced out of the match due to a knee injury.
The game ended 4-3 in favour of England.
