Nathaniel Clyne wins FIFA 16 Celebrity Cup

Liverpool full-back Nathaniel Clyne was crowned the winner of the FIFA 16 Celebrity Cup in London on Monday after beating Crystal Palace's Jason Puncheon in the video-game final.

The 24-year-old was among a number of fellow footballers, including Kyle Walker, Ashley Williams, John Ruddy and Adebayo Akinfenwa, who took part in the tournament.

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand, boxer Anthony Joshua and McFly singer Danny Jones were also invited to mark the UK launch of the EA Sports game.

Clyne and Puncheon made it to the final, but it was the former who came out on top as he secured a victory playing as Chelsea, while the Palace man controlled Manchester City.

Organisers handed over a special award for Clyne at the end of the tournament at Gfinity Arena.
