In the sweet stills, Perrie is seen lining up a small yellow soccer ball in front of a mini goal set up in her living room.
Then he says: ‘We’ve got Axel Oxlade-Chamberlain, he’s coming to take a penalty!’
But Axel then runs to the other side of the room and stands by the sofa, with Perrie’s mother Debbie saying from behind the camera: ‘Where is he going to take this penalty? To take the penalty you are going from the wrong angle.
But Axel runs back to kick the ball towards the goal, as Perrie is heard to comment: ‘Here he comes, he’s going to take a penalty, is he going to score? He shoots and scores!’
