Mauricio Pochettino's reaction after Tommy Fury tried rolling ball in was priceless

Tommy Fury was not aware of the rules of football in his second Soccer Aid appearance.

Mauricio Pochettino had a hilarious reaction after seeing Tommy Fury attempt to roll the ball in during Soccer Aid.

The undefeated boxer made his second appearance in the UNICEF charity game as England faced Rest of the World at Stamford Bridge.

Fury entered the fray just before half-time and lined up on the right wing. The heavyweight didn't have the best start as his first touch was a complete mis-kick as he hit the turf.

And then he proceeded to produce one of the greatest moments in Soccer Aid history.

The ball went out for a throw-in and Fury, wearing the number zero on the back of his shirt, mistakenly rolled the ball back into play.

Of course the roll-in was not legal and the referee ordered the throw-in to be re-taken.

But the ITV cameras panned to the bench and both Pochettino and assistant manager Robbie Keane were in absolute stitches at what the Manchester United fan had just done.

The scores are poised 2-2 at half-time. Joe Cole and Ellen White were on target for England, with Eden Hazard and Alessandro Del Piero bagging for the Rest of the World.

Fury hit headlines in his Soccer Aid debut and was mocked by rival KSI.

And predictably social media was awash with reaction to his latest showing.

One joked: "Why’s he not playing for England??"

Another said: "Dude has probably never watched a game of football in his life

A third added: "Did Tommy fury really just underarm roll it for a throw in?"

A fourth commented: "And he had the cheek to say he went and watched Manchester United play when he was growing up lol."

Fury was born and raised in Manchester but qualifies for the Rest of the World side as his father John was born in Ireland and his mother Chantal, is of Mauritian descent.
