Did he complete KSI’s kick up challenge?
KSI issued a challenge where he asked Speed to perform 20 kickups without letting the ball touch the ground.
If he could do it, he’d be invited to take part in the Charity Match.
The content creator posted a video on Twitter doing just that, showing off his ball skills and captioned the video: “20 kickups do I play in the charity match now KSI?”
KSI replied to the video, sharing it on his own Twitter feed and wrote: “Congrats bro. Welcome to the Sidemen Charity match.”
When is the Sidemen Charity Match?
The 2023 event will be held on September 9, 2023.
Kick-off is yet to be confirmed but it’s likely to be at 3 pm.
You can watch the match on YouTube via the official Sidemen channel.
British rapper Aitch will be performing at the halftime show.
The match will take place at London Stadium, which is considerably larger than in previous years.
The event was first held in 2016, with this year’s fifth outing set to be the biggest yet, with all 62,000 tickets selling out in less than two hours.
In August 2023 the Sidemen were presented with a Guinness World Record for the 2022 match, as it was the most watched live sports event on YouTube ever.
That match raised £1m for good causes, including Teenage Cancer Trust.
