The Sidemen Charity Match 2025 is taking place on Saturday afternoon with a collection of YouTube's favourite creators set to star.

Unlike other events raising money for good causes no former footballers like Jamie Carragher are involved, while one of those personalities might be extremely pleased not to be meeting the former Liverpool defender once again.

Carragher retired in 2013 as Liverpool's second-highest-ever appearance-maker, accumulating a grand total of 737 only beaten by Ian Callaghan.



Over the years, the 47-year-old has gladly turned back the clock and competed in numerous charity events and testimonials.

One of these events was the 2016 edition of the Wembley Cup.

In that, many of those same internet personalities are now on track to play in front of 90,000 fans at this weekend's Sidemen Charity Match.

No former footballers are invited to that event - set up by British YouTube collective The Sidemen to raise money for BBC Children in Need and Bright Side - otherwise we may have at long last seen round two of Carragher vs Joe Weller.

The YouTube personality - with over five million subscribers on the platform - came up against the Liverpool hero at the Wembley Cup nine years ago.

Just grow up," the YouTuber complained.

And in a typical Carragher response, he was asked about the clash in a video with Sky Sports a few months later.

"He was just annoying me in the game," said the Liverpool favourite.

"I'd never heard of him, supposedly a big star on YouTube, he was acting the big star on the pitch, so I gave him a slap," the ex-Liverpool man said, before going on to issue the challenge: "I loved munching Joe Weller in that game and if I get a chance I'll be doing it again."

That was almost one decade ago, though.
