The Sidemen beat YouTube All-Stars 7-5 in an entertaining charity match at the London Stadium on Saturday. KSI, playing in goal so as not to pick up an injury ahead of his boxing match with Tommy Fury next month, led his team to victory and saved a penalty from iShowSpeed on a fantastic afternoon of action in east London.
More than £1m was raised for various causes as the Sidemen Charity Football Match hits new heights. Played last year at the Valley Stadium in Charlton, appearing in front of a sold-out crowd at the home of West Ham represents a major step up in appeal.
While crossover football does not yet have the appeal of crossover boxing, big names in the world of YouTube delighted supporters at one of the biggest grounds in England. On a day meant to provide support to many worthy causes, the Sidemen continue to break new ground.
