Ben Winston has been forced to make two changes to his Maccabi GB Open football squad competing at the European Maccabi Games in Vienna.

Faithfold midfielder Paul Babai replaces teammate Alex Levack while Jake Gottlieb makes way for Neasden colleague George Fierstone.

An important part of the build-up to the event is fund-raising for all GB athletes. This year, the football squad have set up a silent auction. Prizes include watching a Spurs training session, tickets for a Take That and JLS concert and signed memorabilia from David Beckham, Cesc Fabregas, Andy Murray and Jenson Button. There is even a visit from James Corden up for grabs with the TV star offering one of his famous teamtalks at someone's office or dressing room.

Speaking about the Games, Corden said: "I have heard a lot about the event and it sounds like a fantastic tournament. From what I hear, we have a good chance of doing well this year and I really hope we do. I am more than happy to support the team in any way I can.
