“Team Pete,” one fan declared. Another added: “Don’t risk that handsome face! ” A third admirer gushed: “Looking gorgeous Pete but don’t ruin that beautiful face of yours”.
However, it seems the fight is all for a good cause – Soccer Aid. This comes after Tommy had Soccer Aid spectators in stitches over the weekend.
Fury was among the stars who took part in this year’s charity football match, which raised money for UNICEF. The reality TV star played for the World XI team alongside celebs like Roman Kemp, Jason Manford, Tony Bellew and Usain Bolt, as well as former footballers Eden Hazard, Roberto Carlos and Petr Cech.

Sadly, Tommy’s team were beaten by England, with the final score standing at 6-3. This was Tommy’s second year participating in Soccer Aid, but his performance on the field was met with criticism from fans.
He made two major errors after being brought on as a substitute. Tommy attempted to take a throw-in, but instead of launching it over his head, he opted for an underarm toss.
Clips of the blunder quickly circulated on social media. And it’s fair to say fans were questioning Tommy’s grasp of the game.
