Match For Hope combines the popularity of influencers, YouTubers and football greats with a match to raise money for children in schools in Palestine, Sudan, Mali, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Pakistan.
This year the confirmed names of football greats to influencers and celebrities range from Arsene Wenger, Thierry Henry, Andrea Pirlo, Sharky, David Silva, Andres Iniesta and Harry Pinero.
Last year the first Match for Hope was an overwhelming success as around 22million people tuned and $8.8million (£7million) was raised for charity.
Last year, Chunkz and AboFlah were the team captains, and the former’s team emerged 7-5 winners.
The second Match for Hope fixture takes place in Qatar this evening.
