Playing.io sponsors charity football match with Brazilian players

Brazilian iGaming blockchain website Playing.io supported a charity football match with some of the Premier League’s best players, including Emerson and Richarlison, managing to raise five tons of food for people in need. Every ticket bought for the game secured one kg of food that will be donated to the Tottenham Food Bank.

The match was played in the small English town of Dagenham, on the eastern edge of London, which saw football fans from all over the UK flock down to see their favourite footballers in action.

Some of the event’s stars that took to the field were Richarlison, Brazilian influencer Luva de Pedreiro, Luigi Gaspar, Emerson Royal, Edu Gaspar, Douglas Luiz, Fernandinho, and more.

The rest of the players at the game were made up of a variety of Brazilian influencers including Negrete, Big G and Felipe Araujo.

Emerson’s team saw the victory slip away from their hands after a tight match, scoring five goals but still failing to beat Pedreiro’s side and the eight times they sliced the goal open.

 

 

On the event, Richard Hogg, CEO of Playing.io, said that the firm is eager to keep looking for ways to help local communities after the match made him “thrilled to see fans and celebrities alike come together for such an important cause.

The high-scoring game resulted in 5,000 kilograms of food supplies being donated to the Tottenham food bank.

Playing.io is a blockchain iGaming website that was recently launched in Brazil, with gaming and sports betting options on its website.
