A Liverpool Legends XI faced an Australian select Legends side on Thursday in Sydney.
Fans of the Reds Down Under are getting the chance to see Steven Gerrard once again in a Liverpool jersey today as he takes to the field along with old-team-mates Didi Hamann and Robbie Fowler among others.

But we have to admit we’re more than a little bit startled by a bizarre incident during the Australian national anthem before the game as TV cameras caught Aussie TV host Craig Foster, who was playing for the Aussie side, getting up close and personal with the female mascot standing in front of him.
Alrighty then

It turns out the girl is his daughter, but it’s hard to know if that makes things better or worse for the well liked and respected broadcaster.
We found it a little bit weird and so did many other folks on Twitter.
Most people had the very same reaction:

That girl was Craig Foster's daughter and he looked so proud to have her there but it looked very inappropriate the way he was showing it

I feel like Craig Foster probably shouldn't have done that?

And some people couldn’t help themselves
Has Craig foster been subbed off into cuffs yet?
