The Match of Hope featured a mix of football legends and content creators.
IShowSpeed, real name Darren Watkins Jr, was up to his usual antics at the event.
Before the match, he was spotted discussing positions with Eden Hazard and discussing tactics with former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.
He received an attack from fans during the match for a reckless challenge on Kaka.
The YouTuber slid in from behind and took out the one-time Ballon d’Or winner.
He was shown a yellow card by the referee and quickly showed his disapproval, despite it clearly being the correct punishment.
A clip of the tackle went viral on social media as fans criticized IShowSpeed.
One posted: “He’s actually quite cringe-worthy and always trying to create a viral moment.”

A second wrote: “What is wrong with this man bruh.”
A third commented: “It should have been red straight away, that’s actually very dangerous.”
A fourth said: “Rubbish behavior from IShowSpeed.”
A fifth added: “Who keeps letting this man loose around legends.”
Fortunately, Kaka was not injured by the challenge as he was able to continue.
While sitting on the bench, IShowSpeed was filmed alongside Wenger repeatedly saying, “Put me in, I’m ready now”, as the Frenchman laughed.
His match wouldn’t be much better, because he also missed an open goal.
This would have come as a surprise to the star as he kissed Brazilian legend Roberto Carlos’ head for good luck before being substituted.
Former Chelsea stars Didier Drogba and Claude Makelele, as well as Barcelona legend David Villa, were also among the legends in attendance.
