Oasis star Liam Gallagher graces Juventus pitch alongside Del Piero, Nedved

British rocker Liam Gallagher took to the hallowed turf of the Juventus Stadium for a charity match on Tuesday.

The Oasis vocalist and guitarist, 42, took part in the Italian equivalent of 'Soccer Aid' as a team including Bianconeri greats Alessandro Del Piero and Pavel Nedved took on an eleven filled with Italian musicians.

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri was also involved despite the fact his side is preparing for the weekend's Champions League final against Barcelona in Berlin.

Gallagher said: "They have something like this (in England) but I never get invited to it. Probably because I'm rubbish. They have a Soccer Aid thing, yeah."
