xQc Reflects on Performance at Sidemen Charity Match 2025
In his recent livestream, popular streamer Felix “xQc”Lengyel shared insights regarding his experience at the Sidemen Charity Match 2025. Playing as a goalkeeper for the Sidemen FC team, xQc faced off against the YouTube AllStars. Unfortunately for his team, they lost after a tense penalty shootout, during which xQc did not manage to block any shots, resulting in a performance rating of just 2 out of 10.
Emphasizing Entertainment Over Winning
On March 11, 2025, in a follow-up livestream, xQc discussed his aspirations for the match. He humbly acknowledged that the primary role in such events should rest with professional players, stating he participated mainly for the entertainment of his audience:
“My job, chat, it’s not to win or lose. That’s not… whose job is that? Guys, the job to win or lose is to the professionals. None of us are professionals. My job is to entertain. Hold on now, let him cook now! Let him cook now! My job is to entertain the crowd and the fans, and chat, I did all that. Chat, stay with me there. Stay with me now, chat! Now we’re going to get 18 goals, I also got penalty shots.”
xQc further expressed confidence in his unique ability to captivate the audience at the event:
“Stay with me now! Come on! Chat, actually entertained the audience. Cinema! Only one guy out there, chat, can do all that. You are looking directly at him. Chat, cinema! Cinema! Chat, who else can do all that except for me? Nobody!”
Responding to IShowSpeed’s Winning Penalty
In the same livestream, xQc also commented on the crucial penalty taken by Darren “IShowSpeed”that led the YouTube AllStars to victory. He described the shot as having remarkable power yet deemed it easy:
“You guys need to see the angle. Like, the shot was pretty easy, it had a lot of power. Why do you think the shot was so easy? Because it had a lot of power! What the f**k is wrong with you guys? Like, how do you not understand that? Yeah, there was a good amount of power in that shot! Yeah!”
Moreover, xQc lamented his unfortunate luck in not being able to save the penalty:
“Unlucky, actually. It’s unlucky. Look how unlucky that is. I’ll be honest with you — this comes down to how the arms move, really. If the arms stayed up like this, I had it.”
Post-Match Reflections and Injury Claims
After receiving a disheartening score of 2 out of 10, xQc revealed on X that he had suffered a wrist fracture during the charity match, illustrating the physical challenges even non-professional athletes face in such competitive settings.
