IShowSpeed, better known as Speed, a YouTube sensation, has trounced KSI in a running contest and celebrated like Portuguese football icon Cristiano Ronaldo. While preparing for the eagerly anticipated Sideman Charity Football match, the pair challenged one another to a running contest.
According to reports, the race happened on September 7 in London, where the two internet stars were supposedly preparing for the impending Sidemen Charity Football match. MrBeast, xQc, and JME will be among the notable participants in the match, which will take place on September 9, 2023. The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), the Teenage Cancer Trust, and Rays of Sunshine will get 100 percent of the earnings.

Even though it was a close race, Speed prevailed over KSI and crossed the line first. Then, after sprinting to the end, he leaped into the air, exclaimed "siiiiu," and then turned around to pose with his arms out. KSI, a supporter of Ronaldo as well, accepted defeat with grace and praised Speed for winning.

There will be 35,000 more spectators this time because the 2023 Sideman contest will be held at the London Stadium in West Ham. The organisers took advantage of the international break by choosing a weekend without a West Ham United Premier League match. The game will begin at 3 p.m. local time for the sold-out audience.
In the previous year's game, which was played at The Valley in Charlton and raised £1 million for charitable organisations, Sidemen FC triumphed in an exciting 8-7 victory. Before turning his attention to the boxing ring and his forthcoming match with Tommy Fury, KSI will serve as the team's captain. Those who will appear on the YouTube All-Stars side include MrBeast and IShowSpeed. Free live streaming of the game will start 45 minutes before kickoff on Sideman's official YouTube channel.
