Sidemen FC Charity Match 2023 LIVE! Game result, match stream and latest updates today
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.

TBJZL speaks to the BBC

“”Our main advantage over traditional media is that they look at ratings and views whereas we can see comments and get feedback when we run into people on the street,” he adds.
Vik added: “We can turn things around fast and there’s no red tape, no corporate overseeing and when we decide what we want to do, we go and do it.”

The Sidemen to open first high street restaurant as Sides chicken brand expands
13:52 , Jonathan Gorrie
YouTube sensations The Sidemen are set to open their first standalone high street restaurant this year as part of plans to expand their Sides fried chicken brand.
The YouTube collective consists of Olajide ‘JJ’ Olatunji (KSI), Harry Lewis (Wroetoshaw), Simon Minter (Miniminter), Vik Barn (Vikkstar123), Josh Bradley (Zerkaa), Ethan Payne (Behzinga) and Tobi Brown (TBJZL), and has 18.5 million subscribers.
The group first launched the Sides brand for delivery only in late 2021 and has since expanded into food courts.
On Monday, The Sidemen revealed plans to expand it to a further 10 locations in 2023, in a move that expands its footprint to northern England and Scotland and create around 100 jobs.

KSI vs Tommy Fury has been confirmed for October in Manchester on a huge night which will see Logan Paul fight on the same card.
The pair will settle their feud on October 14 at the AO Arena in Manchester, broadcast live on DAZN PPV.
Announcing the news on social media, KSI wrote: “OCTOBER 14TH, I’m doing what Jake Paul couldn’t and beating Tommy Fury on the biggest night in crossover boxing history, at Manchester’s AO Arena, live on DAZN PPV on the PRIME CARD!”
KSI told DAZN: “I came back to boxing to show the world the crazy levels I’m at. I’ve shown through obliterating all my past opponents that I am the best in this scene. “

Internet’s popular entertainer KSI is due to face Tommy Fury in an upcoming fight that will take place on October 14 in Manchester.
The 30-year-old social media star has previously beaten others in the ring, but this will be his first time since apologising for using a racist slur in a video.
