    Baker, 27, went down after taking a shot and spent several minutes receiving treatment before being substituted.
    And he appeared to be in significant pain as he was taken off, with fans applauding and signing “Theo, Theo!”.
    Baker himself covered his face with his shirt to hide his tears as he lay on the stretcher.
    Even commentator Stephen Tries was disappointed – but he was not exactly sympathetic considering Baker has just come back from a hip operation.

    He said: “This is a real shame because I had some more jokes written and that was a waste of time.”
    Baker’s injury was one of the main talking points of an action-packed first half which saw the two teams go in level at 2-2.
    However it was overshadowed by a hilarious mistake by YouTube All Star JiDion for the opening goal.
    Behzinga slotted home after dribbling past one defender, but the ball fell at the feet of JiDion who tried to pick up the ball with his hands.

    Last year’s game, an 8-7 thriller at Charlton’s The Valley – has been streamed 34million times so far.
    And Saturday’s event is poised to be even bigger.
    MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, will be in top shape for the soccer event after going from chubby to lean and muscular within the past year.
    Earlier this summer, the 25-year-old internet personality showed off his impressive weight loss, even earning the praise of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

    The content creator and philanthropist revealed that he has been walking 12,500 steps a day to shed the pounds.
    “Me and Eric, another YouTuber, we signed a contract where we’d work out every day, and if we didn’t, we’d get a tattoo of each other,” MrBeast said during an interview with The Colin and Samir Show.
    “You’re OK to have a day off if it’s like an actual part of your program, so I occasionally have rest days.
    “But for the most part, the last 310 days, we’ve worked out every single day, and we’ve held each other accountable, and it’s been awesome.”

    MrBeast then followed up his before-and-after images with one photo of him flexing his muscles.
    “I was just so laser-focused on the [YouTube] channel, and I just realized one day…I have not been working out or taking care of myself or anything,” he added.
    “Up to this point, I’ve just been losing fat. It’s harder to put on muscle when you’re losing fat. But it’s been fun.”
    MrBeast also offered words of encouragement to his followers should they also want to lose weight.
    “All you have to do is work out for three months really consistently, and then it’ll just become part of your lifestyle,” he said. 
    “I couldn’t fathom a year ago, ‘How am I ever going to do this religiously?’ because we just have so much stuff going on, but now it’s just truly a habit.”
    Many fans have congratulated MrBeast on his fitness journey.
    “I think seeing the weight you have lost is amazing. Congratulations!” one Twitter user wrote.
