1D's Tomlinson in football debut

One Direction heart-throb Louis Tomlinson made his professional football debut for Doncaster reserves last night, delighting more than 5,000 hardcore fans with his cameo appearance.

Rovers fan Tomlinson, whose band have had three consecutive number one albums in the United States and won two Brit Awards earlier this month, came on as a second-half substitute in the Final Third Development League fixture against Rotherham as part of a joint partnership with local charity Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice.
