It was quite a surreal experience, walking out to a stadium as big as Wembley with no crowd. The organisation for the stadium was very strict and we were only allowed a guest each, so my girlfriend didn’t even get to see me stride out onto the Wembley turf as captain of Spencer FC. Besides, with all the editing work Alex was busy doing during that crazy year she probably wouldn’t have been able to spare the time!
I gave my ticket to my mum, to return the favour for the spare ticket she gave me for Graham Norton’s Totally Saturday. I didn’t have any surprises in store for her, though, and I hoped the Sidemen wouldn’t have any nasty surprises in store for our team either. My dad was there too, as physio for both teams, should things get a bit tasty. Anyone who’s watched my channel for a while knows about the magic hands of Stevie CB!
My head was in two places as we lined up and then did the obligatory pre-match handshakes. On the one hand, I was thinking about the production and everything that went along with it, and on the other I was thinking, I am about to play at Wembley Stadium.
I needed to focus on the match if I was going to give a good account of myself, especially as it was undoubtedly going to be the biggest audience online ever to see me play. The thing I have always found about any game of football, at any level, is that, once the match starts, I just want to win. I’m desperate for it.
It would have been easy to get distracted by thoughts of the filming and how things would look onscreen later, but thankfully we had an absolutely amazing production team and that took a lot of the pressure off me. I was able to forget about the video for 90 minutes and just play a game of football – a game that just happened to be the biggest of my life so far.
We took our positions and I had to pinch myself as I adjusted my captain’s armband on the Wembley turf. And then any such thoughts were immediately dispelled as the whistle blew and we were off. It was all about the game from now on.
It was a pretty tense start to the match, and Jeremy Lynch showed early on why his skills were in such high demand as he cut through the Sidemen defence, but it was MiniMinter’s boys who had the first clear chance, with freestyler Daniel Cutting forcing Vujanic into action.
We drew first blood after five minutes, when Jeremy’s pace helped him go clear and square an easy finish for RossiHD. What a way to announce your arrival in the team!
Sidemen United weren’t about to give up the YouTube bragging rights without a fight, and Daniel Cutting scored a goal worthy of any cup final when he brought them level with a delicious chip over Vujanic. And if that
