Tyson Fury is famous for his potty mouth (Picture: ITV)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Soccer Aid<\/a> 2025 got off to a rather chaotic start thanks to Tyson Fury<\/a>’s potty mouth.<\/p>\n

The former professional boxer joined a lineup<\/a> of major celebrities taking part in this year’s event<\/a> to raise money for UNICEF.<\/p>\n

Playing for England were the likes of Louis Tomlinson<\/a>, Jill Scott<\/a>, Jermain Defoe<\/a>, Sir Mo Farah<\/a>, and Steven Bartlett<\/a>, with Paddy McGuinness<\/a> in goal.<\/p>\n

They faced off against World XI, which comprised Big Zuu, Dermot Kennedy, Tony Bellew<\/a>, and Gorka M\u00e1rquez<\/a>, to name a few.<\/p>\n

Tyson, meanwhile, was on the management team for England alongside Wayne Rooney<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An enthusiastic Manchester United fan, the 36-year-old had declared his pride to welcome England to Old Trafford for the game, which is his club’s home ground.<\/p>\n
