One Direction Star Louis Tomlinson Makes Football Debut

1D singer Louis Tomlinson took a break from singing and made his professional football debut last night for Doncaster, in a match that saw a nil all draw. The chart-topping singer came on with just 15 minutes left in the game to play for Doncaster Rovers reserves against Rotherham. It’s reported that 5,000 fans made their way to the match with some travelling as far as the US and Mexico.
