Liverpool striker Danny Sturridge has presented a gong at the BET Awards in LA.
The England star made a surprise appearance at the BET Awards to present the Best Male R&B/Pop Artist award alongside NFL star DeSean Jackson and actor Boris Kodjoe.
The Daily Mail reports Sturridge, who struggled to get his line out, just about managed to avoid a spectacular own goal when he said: "DeSean, we've been kicking football around internationally for years baby boy. You know we invented the game, that's how it goes."
When he and Jackson started to mock squabble Boris cut them both down to size, saying, "Fellas relax OK, international football, American football, you both play with balls."
