Sideman charity match LIVE as YouTube All-Stars start IShowSpeed with KSI ready (2024)

The Sidemen are back and bigger than ever with the latest edition of their massively popular charity match! The 2023 edition promises to be one of the best yet.

With all of the usual stars, KSI, Mr Beast, Miniminter and Chris MD, there's plenty to look out for at West Ham's London Stadium this afternoon with some of the biggest social media, YouTube and popular culture names on show.

IShowSpeed is set to dominate the headlines and a clip of his improvements has already exploded ahead of the game with the hope that he can channel the inner Cristiano Ronaldo and produce a moment of magic in east London.

With more than double the capacity of last season's venue at Charlton - an expected 62,000 packing into the stadium today - the atmosphere is set to be electric for those at the game whilst the match will also be streamed on YouTube as well in BoxParks at London and Croydon. Rapper Aitch will also be at the game for a half-time show.

We'll bring you all the build-up, banter and best moments as they happen from the 2023 Sidemen charity match, right here!

Behzinga reacts to a goal he will never forget

It's difficult to remember that a spectacular moment opened the 2023 Sidemen charity match with 12 goals coming after Behzinga's opener.

However, it is certainly worth reminding ourselves of the precise, close-range goal from the West Ham fan and Sidemen captain, who walked out onto the pitch with his daughter Olive, and he has now reacted to that moment with a simple message.

A lethal Sidemen duo

Vikkstar123 and Wroetoshaw combined to score a delighful goal in the Sidemen vs YouTube All-Stars charity match and Vikkstar has not paid tribute to the goal scorer from that move...

Vikkstar123 filled with pride after charity game

Sidemen member Vikkstar123 has spoken for the first time since playing for Sidemen FC in the charity match against the YouTube All-Stars.

"All of our team who put together something we could never comprehend and I hear we've absolutely smashed target from last year of £1million raised, so we'll find out later on just how much we've raised."

Tareq ends YouTube All-Stars hope

The Sidemen have scored again and that is probably the game...

With KSI playing outfield despite being in goal, Tareq has taken advantage of the chaos to score deep into added time.

Kieran Horn

Nine minutes added on

Plenty of time for the YouTube All-Stars to score two more goals with another nine minutes to play in the 2023 charity match!

Kieran Horn

Niko Omilana pulls one back

The YouTube All-Stars have hope!

Wroetoshaw banger gives Sidemen breathing room

The Sidemen have their three-goal lead back and it is worldie from wroetoshaw...

Vikstar123 is played through on goal but chooses to turn back to his fellow Sidemen member who launches an effort into the top corner.

Kieran Horn

Max Fosh booked...

Max Fosh has seemingly booked referee Mark Clattenburg...

Following a synical challenge on Miniminter, Clattenburg pulled out the yellow card but Fosh subsequently pulled out an uno reverse card, which seems to indicate that Clattenburg is actually in the book...

Kieran Horn

KSI scores own goal...

After saving the penalty, KSI has managed to score an own goal by rolling into the net...

The YouTube All-Stars came forward with KSI looking in contro of collecting the loose ball before he lost sight of it. He was able to recover but then took the ball over the line to bring the score to 6-4!

Kieran Horn

Manny and Tobi score in quick succession

Manny and Tobi have both now scored to put the Sidemen firmly in front!

Kieran Horn

Speed misses penalty!

Oh no, oh no, oh no. That wasn't in the script. IShowSpeed's timid penalty is saved by KSI. However, Max Fosh has just rifled in a goal back for the YouTube All-Stars.

Kieran Horn

Penalty to the All-Stars

ChrisMD has been taken out by Wroetoshaw and it is penalty and it looks like IShowSpeed is going to take out....

Kieran Horn

Manny in the goals again

Miniminter's shot is palmed into danger by xQc and Manny is on hand to tap home and put the Sidemen 4-2 up

Kieran Horn

Manny puts Sidemen into the lead!

Miniminter now has an assist as well!

His run in behind is found by Manny and Miniminter is able to turn and give it back to Manny with his calm finish beating xQc.

Kieran Horn

Second half underway

The second period is now in play, the Sidemen FC and YouTube All-Stars are level - who will win this match and take home the 2023 charity match trophy? We will find out in the next 45 minutes!

Kieran Horn

A reminder on how to donate

Aitch performance underway

Rapper Aitch is now out at London Stadium doing his half time performance!

Kieran Horn

And that is half time

What an eventful 45 minutes of football!

Sidemen FC have taken the lead twice but have been pegged back on both occasions by the YouTube All-Stars. What a brilliant second half we could have on our hands!

Kieran Horn

A wild deflection sees YouTube All-Stars equalise again!

Filly does brilliant to keep hold of the ball with play breaking to Chunkz and his effort is goalbound... but it takes a huge deflection of Wroetoshaw and the game is back level.

Kieran Horn

Miniminter puts Sidemen back in front!

The top scorer of all the previous charity matches strikes again....

A brilliant ball over the top from Manny is latched onto by Miniminter and he places the ball calmly beyond xQc. The Sidemen lead again right on half time with three minutes added on - quite sure how that works

Kieran Horn

A lull in the game

After a frantic opening 20 minutes, the injury to Theo Baker has taken the stuffing out of the game.

Possession is being shared with both teams losing the ball in the attacking third, however the most recent passage of play has ended with Danny Aarons launching an effort into orbit from about 40 yards out. Still 1-1., clearly...

Kieran Horn

Stretcher takes Theo Baker off

That really is not good. Theo Baker has left the pitch with his head in his hands and the YouTube All-Stars have lost one of their most important players.

The lengthy delay is now over but there will surely be hefty amount of time added on! Jacksepticeye is the man to replace Baker
