Fifa boss furious with Simon Brodkin

Lee Nelson creator Simon Brodkin has gatecrashed another high-profile ever: A Fifa press conference.

The comedian managed to bypass security and shower president Sepp Blatter with fake banknotes.

In the guise of his footballer alter-ego Jason Bent, Brodkin said: ‘Sepp, this is for North Korea in 2026’ before being led away by security.

The Fifa boss is visibly furious at the stunt, and before he leaves the room Brodkin yells: ‘Cheers, Sepp - it's all there’

The stunt comes only weeks after Brodkin gatecrashed Kanye West's headlining set at Glastonbury.

Here’s the moment Brodkin interrupted the Fifa press conference:
