Carlos Tevez was ordered to wear a Brazil shirt in training and donate around 1000.00 pounds to Great Ormond Street Hospital after walking out on West Ham Utd on Saturday.

Coach Alan Pardew left the punishment to the West Ham team, who promptly ordered Tevez to don the yellow and green top. But Tevez refused to wear it.

"I just couldn't train in a Brazil shirt, I wouldn't do it," Tevez said.

"It was like asking an Englishman to wear a German kit, he'd never do that...it's too much to wear the strip of my country's biggest rivals."
