Robbie Williams Gives The Middle Finger To Millions Watching At Home During World Cup Ceremony

If you're a fan of Robbie Williams, yes I'm talking to you Real Madrid midfielder and Germany international Toni Kroos, then you'll have loved the World Cup opening ceremony on Thursday afternoon.

TAKE A BOW!
