Players to Watch

For Sidemen FC, look no further than Miniminter, who scored a hat-trick last year.

IShowSpeed is the man to watch for the YouTube All-Stars - the streamer may not be the best player on the pitch but managed to floor KSI with a brutal slide tackle after 20 seconds last year and then begun celebrating.

The pair continued their friendly war in the stands as Arsenal beat Manchester United 3-1.

Joshua Bradley, known as Zerkaa, is thrilled to see the match grow in popularity over the years, saying: "This is a major milestone for us.

"When we first set up this event back in 2016, we never thought we'd be playing in a stadium of over 62,000 people.

"Not only are we able to give back to our loyal fans, but being able to raise further funds for charities that are so close to our hearts give us a lot to be proud and thankful for."

Meanwhile, Graham Gilmore, CEO of London Stadium, added: “This event goes from strength to strength.
