Soccer Aid viewers were left stunned by Robbie Williams during last night’s charity match (September 4).
The musician, who initiated Soccer Aid in 2006, made brief cameos throughout the show at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
But it was his appearance that really took fans by surprise.
Robbie, 47, appeared at various points throughout the game.
He firstly chatted to presenter Dermot O’Leary ahead of the match.
Opening up on incredible fundraiser, he shared: “I can’t believe it’s gone on this far and we’ve raised that much money. It’s unbelievable.

“I think we raised £9.7 million last time and tonight we’re going to beat that. Fingers crossed!”
Meanwhile, later on, Robbie appeared on the pitch alongside Alex Scott, Julie Murray and Joel Dommett.
But according to some, the singer looked totally different.
