Fans heap praise on Angry Ginge's acrobatic goal-line clearance in Soccer Aid - and claim internet star is 'better' than Man United's defenders
Fans were left stunned after internet personality Angry Ginge produced a stunning goal-line clearance during Soccer Aid.
The 23-year-old took to the pitch for England in the clash against World XI at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon, in the 14th edition of the event.
The match featured legends of the game such as Wayne Rooney, Rivaldo and David Trezeguet - but it was the 23-year-old streamer who stole the show in the first-half.
In the 20th minute of the match, Brazilian legend Rivaldo thought he'd levelled the score - following an opening goal from Rooney - after lifting the ball over Joe Hart.
However, internet star 'Ginge' - real name Morgan Burtwhistle - came to the rescue as he dived across the goal and poked the ball away from goal.
He immediately rose to his feet and pumped his fists in the air towards the crowd at Old Trafford.
What a clearance from Angry Ginge… Vidic who? 😅🧱

It didn't take long for fans to laud the clearance from the Man United fan and some even suggested he was better than the defenders in the squad.
One fan wrote: 'Honestly Angry Ginge is better than anyone else playing for a home team at Old Trafford lately, the sliding tackle earlier and that clearance. Fantastic stuff'.
