ITV commentator Clive Tyldesley has been slammed online after joking GMB presenter Susanna Reid should be 'kept on suicide watch' after her team lost to co-host Piers Morgan's in Soccer Aid last night.

Reid was co-managing the England side with Sam Allardyce against Morgan's Rest of the World XI co-managed by Harry Redknapp with bragging rights on the line.

Tyldesley made the controversial remark after England were defeated in a penalty shoot-out following a 2-2 draw, prompting some outrage on social media.

But others defended the veteran commentator and said there was no need to 'take the moral high ground'. 

Morgan celebrated the victory excessively on GMB today and constantly mocked Reid over the defeat.
