IshowSpeed is one of the most successful YouTubers because of his dynamic personality and sense of humor. With 17.1M subscribers, he is one of the leading content creators across the world. Ishow, who is often seen barking and ranting in his videos, is a huge fan of Portugal footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. He has been chasing Ronaldo for months now and he even went to Qatar to watch Ronaldo play during the FIFA World Cup.
Finally, after all the slogging, his dream came true on Sunday when he met Ronaldo after Portugal's Euro 2024 qualifying fixture against Bosnia and Herzegovina in Lisbon.
The Portugal footballer played his 199th game for his country and was there on the field for the entire 90 minutes and as a result, his side won the game at the Estadio da Luz by 3-0. Just after the game, Ishow got a chance to meet his idol in person as Ronaldo stepped out of his car to meet his fan.
IshowSpeed could not believe that he was with his idol as he couldn't control his excitement. Here is the video:
It was Ronaldo’s colleague Rafael Leao who arranged the meeting just after the match got over.
Recently, Ronaldo’s elder brother Hugo dos Santos Aveiro was accused of selling counterfeit Juventus jerseys by the Italian Public Prosecutor's Office. Hugo will be facing legal proceedings for selling jerseys that had the picture and signature of Ronaldo as he did not take the permissions and licenses. As per the report by ‘Corriere dello Sport’, Ronaldo’s elder brother will be undergoing legal trial for allegedly selling jerseys.
Also after a lot of speculation, the 38-year-old joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr on a 2-and-a-half-year contract and reportedly became the world's highest-paid footballer. The contract is worth more than 200 million euros ($214.04 million).
