    I’m an ex-Man Utd and England star, the Sidemen stars ‘absolutely killed’ me when we played against each other

    BEN FOSTER was left stunned when he faced off against two Sidemen Charity Match stars. The former Manchester United and England goalkeeper paired up with FIFA YouTuber’s Chris MD and Miniminter for a free-kick challenge in 2021.

    The video, shared to Foster’s The Cycling GK social media pages, saw him face ten shots (five from each) from various shooting positions outside of the penalty area with a wall in place.
    Chris MD, who has almost six million subscribers on YouTube, stepped up to take first, with Miniminter – who has over ten million subs – taking second.
    And to everyone’s surprise, Chris buried a shot into the top corner leaving the then Watford goalkeeper on the floor in shock.
    Foster, 40, made sure to get his own back by stopping the next six shots from going into the net.

    However, he was powerless to stop Miniminter’s fourth shot which curled around the wall and into the bottom corner with Foster rooted to the spot.
    The goalie found himself conceding again straight away as Chris buried a free-kick into the top right corner despite Foster getting a hand to it.
    After the goal Foster joked: “I am in the middle of off-season. I haven’t trained or caught a ball.
    “It’s probably been about six weeks or something so far so its understandable really, to be fair.”

    The final shot of the video went wide from Miniminter, but Foster was still in disbelief at the quality he had been put up against.
    He said: “I fully expected no goals there. And you’ve absolutely killed me.
    “Standard was incredible, I’m proud of you both. Well done.”
    Foster has collaborated with other YouTube stars in recent years, and it would be far from surprising to see him do it again following his shock retirement at Wrexham last month.
    In the meantime, both Miniminter and Chris MD will be in action during this Saturday’s Sidemen Charity Match.
    After the success of last year’s game which raised £1million for charity and was streamed 34 million times, organisers have gone bigger and bolder.
    This time around the match is being held at West Ham’s London Stadium – which has sold out it’s 62,000 seat allocation.
    It include huge viral stars including KSI, IShowSpeed, Theo Baker and Kai Cenat. More

    Jake Paul promises he will make huge KSI grudge match happen but says rival is ‘hiding’ from fight

    JAKE PAUL has promised to make sure he finally fights KSI but claimed his rival is hiding behind contract clauses. The YouTubers-turned boxers have rivalled ever since KSI beat Jake’s brother Logan in their 2019 rematch following their draw a year earlier.

    But KSI has since teamed up with Logan to form the surging drinks company Prime – which has caused friction with Jake.
    It has set the stage for the mother of all grudge matches in the influencer boxing space but no deal has been struck.
    And while speaking to Twitch streamer Adin Ross, Jake claimed there is only one man to blame for that.
    He said: “It’s gonna happen, it I mean it has to happen. It has to happen, we’ll make it happen, for sure.

    “I’ve been trying to do it, man. He then goes online and like lies about it. Certain clauses and stuff.
    “What happens in boxing is if they don’t really want to do it, they just hide behind all these crazy clauses to make it seem like it’s the contract that’s holding everything up but really it’s the person who doesn’t want to do it.
    “And it’s like look, I’ve fought everybody, every single time. Anyone who asks to fight me, I did the deal, I made it happen.
    “They want ten round? OK, cool. They want this? OK, let’s f***ing do it. So I make these fights happen back to back to back to back for past three-and-a-half years.

    “And people think that I’m the one that wouldn’t make it happen? It’s like, come on guys let’s be realistic here.
    “And I told them, I’ll do it in the UK, you can be the A-side, I don’t give a f*** about any of that.
    “So it’s like, where is the contract hold up? Oh no, you just don’t want to do it.”
    KSI’s manager Mams Taylor hit back: “Does this guy actually ever stop lying? It’s so natural to him it’s scary.”
    Jake, 26, was beaten for the first time in February, losing a split-decision to Tommy Fury, 24, in Saudi Arabia.
    But he snubbed a rematch to instead return in August to beat ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, over ten rounds.
    Now Fury is set to fight KSI, 30, on October 14 in Manchester with Jake set to be in attendance with Logan, 28, fighting on the undercard.

    The videos saw them face off with each other in a number of videos on the FIFA video game series – re-branded this year to EA Sports FC.
    Speaking to BettingSites.co.uk about the link-up, Frimpong said: ” I did make videos with KSI around 12 years ago, when he was coming up in the YouTube scene, and now he’s done very well for himself.
    “We don’t talk because we’re not close friends but follow each other on social media because we have previously worked together.
    “If I did message him, I think he would be humble enough to message me back, but we have nothing to talk about!

    “I congratulate him and wish him even more success because what he’s done and where he has come from is amazing.”
    YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI has amassed a huge following online, with more than 40million fans across his YouTube channels and nearly 34m on other major social media.
    His popularity has also helped him obtain a sizeable fortune, with the 30-year-old estimated to be worth a whopping £20m.
    However, Frimpong, 31, has revealed he was not paid for his appearances in some of the vids, despite them being watched by millions of people.

    He added: “KSI didn’t pay me for the last couple of FIFA videos I did with him years ago, so I might have to give him a message and ask for it now!
    “I always looked to work with people who were talented like KSI, but I don’t think we can have another round of FIFA because he’s moved on from that type of content.”
    Frimpong made 16 appearances for Arsenal after emerging from the club’s academy.
    He would go on to leave in 2014 following loan transfers to Charlton, Fulham and Barnsley, before retiring in 2018 due to a persistent knee injury.
    KSI, despite building his name from gaming in his bedroom as a teen, is now just as well known for his exploits into music, films, influencer boxing and business ventures such as PRIME Hydration.
    KSI is lined up to fight Love Island star Tommy Fury on October 14.
    But before that he is due to star in the Sidemen Charity Match on Saturday.
    Last year saw a 15-goal thriller at Charlton’s The Valley which raised an incredible £1m for charities.
    And this year they are hoping to top that, upgrading their venue to West Ham’s London Stadium which sold out it’s 62,000 allocation.

    GABRIELA Cavallin is a social media influencer who used to date Manchester United’s £85million winger Antony.But who is Gabriela and when did she date the football star?
    Selfie posted by Gabriela Cavallin, ex-girlfriend of Man Utd’s Antony, on InstagramCredit: Instagram
    Who is Gabriela Cavallin?
    Gabriela Cavallin was born on October 31, 2000.
    She is a DJ, model, social media influencer and the ex-girlfriend of Manchester United and Brazil player Antony Matheus dos Santos.
    The couple’s romance was first made public in 2022.
    Gabriela has initiated legal proceedings in Brazil and the UK against the footballer.
    READ MORE ON ANTONY
    When did Gabriela Cavallin date Antony?
    Cavallin and Antony were in an on-and-off relationship for around two years between 2021 and 2023.
    The couple started dating while Antony was playing for Ajax and lived with him in Amsterdam.
    On July 5, 2023 Gabriela filed a police report in São Paulo accusing Antony of domestic violence.
    Gabriela claims the first assault came at a nightclub in the Brazilian city when she was around 17 weeks pregnant with his baby.
    Most read in Football
    She made new claims of abuse just days after Mason Greenwood was axed by Man Utd following his arrest for assault and controlling and abusive behaviour towards his ex Harriet Robson, although the charges were dropped.
    On September 4, 2023 the influencer published a letter issued by her legal team.
    It read: “Gabriela Cavallin’s defence, in view of the facts and evidence that became public knowledge on this date, regarding the repeated episodes of aggression suffered by her, informs that she trusts the serious and competent investigation by the Civil Police of São Paulo.
    “[And] hopes that, as such, once completed, the aggressor will be prosecuted and punished for the crimes he committed.”
    A statement from Antony was also published in the same evening, where he said he felt “obliged” to break his silence “out of respect for my fans, friends and family”.
    The 23-year-old footballer once again denied the accusations of domestic violence after a first statement published in June.
    “Out of respect for my fans, friends and family, I feel obliged to speak out publicly about the false accusations that I have been a victim of,” he wrote.
    “From the beginning, I have treated this matter with seriousness and respect, providing the necessary clarifications to the police.
    “The investigation is under judicial secrecy, and therefore I cannot make its contents public.
    “However, I can calmly say that the accusations are false, and that the current evidence and the ones yet to be produced demonstrate my innocence.”
    The Manchester United star described it as a “tumultuous relationship” after the accusations of abuse surfaced.
    Does Gabriela Cavallin have any children?
    In July, 2023 Gabriela shared on social media that she had suffered a miscarriage.
    The baby boy would have have been named Luca Mateo.
    It is unclear whether she has had any children previously.
    Is Gabriela Cavallin on social media?
    Yes, Gabriela is on social media.

    She is an online influencer and her content focusses on travel, nightlife and her modelling.
    Cavallin has nearly 500,000 followers on Instagram. More

    But the build-up to the clash has seen Danis overstep the mark on a number of occasions.
    He has repeatedly taken aim at Paul’s partner Nina, 31, leaking an X-rated video of her last month.
    He has also made reference to her previously dating actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
    And his latest attempt to wind his boxing rival up was to post an old image on Twitter of the Danish model alongside ex-Man Utd man Forlan, 44.
