2016 Drivers vs Drivers Charity Football Match

You may remember that I did one of these in the Twitter thread a while back, but now I'm actually going to use FIFA 16 to make this (kind of) a reality!

The second annual Drivers vs Drivers Charity Football Match is set to take place in Manchester, England with motorsports stars Ben Atkins and Gabriel Macena captaining the two teams. Teams will consist of some of the best drivers in all divisions of racing!

Both teams will have 11 players and substitutes, with the match taking place on Friday 25th of November, 2016.

Due to the limitations of FIFA 16, I can only accept male drivers for this version, but maybe a Women's Game could be in the future?

The teams will both be in the 4-4-2 formation. The teams are like so:

Team Atkins
