England ended their five-game losing streak at Soccer Aid with a 6-3 win over the World XI.

Ellen White made history as the first female player to score in Soccer Aid, while Steven Bartlett found the net twice during an eventful game.

£15,049,590 was raised by the event, with former Chelsea star Eden Hazard scoring for the World XI on his return to Stamford Bridge.


Mauricio Pochettino was also back at the home of the Blues just weeks after his departure as Chelsea manager. 

There were plenty of other Chelsea connections as England, managed by Frank Lampard, took the lead through Joe Cole, whose effort went through the legs of Petr Cech.
