British YouTuber KSI has confirmed that the popular charity match organised by the UK-based YouTube group Sidemen will be back again most probably next year i.e. 2022.
The Sidemen are one of the biggest YouTube groups on the platform. It includes KSI, Miniminter, Zerkaa, TBJZL, Behzinga, Vikkstar123, and W2S with their collective channel sitting at more than 13.8 million subscribers.
Back in 2016, they started a concept of organising charity matches each year with all the Sidemen playing on one team called Sidemen FC and YouTube creators in another called as YouTube All-Stars.
The first match took place at St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton where the Sidemen FC managed to beat YouTube All-Stars by7–2. The match was touched around 600,000 watching live on YouTube making it the biggest YouTube sporting event ever.
The second and third matches were played at The Valley stadium in London, which were won each by both teams. The concept of using the proceeds money for charity was well appreciated by all of the internet. Since then Sidemen fans are requesting the creators to make it happen again but due to the global pandemic in 2020, it was impossible to arrange it.
However, with the latest episode of What’s Good Podcast hosted by Simon Minter and Randolph, KSI confirmed that there is indeed a Sidemen football charity match in the works.
While Simon prompted that they may struggle with the selection of creators to play against them. But KSI assured him that they could work it out by choosing members from Beta Squad and others.
