IShowSpeed’s Encounter with Ronaldo
IShowSpeed’s strong admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo is well-known among his fans. This 18-year-old YouTuber has respected the footballer for a long time. But his admiration goes beyond social media posts about players. He even shows his admiration through songs. One notable example is a song called “Sewey,” which IShowSpeed dedicated to Ronaldo.
The determined YouTube star wanted to meet his idol, so he traveled all around the world. He attended Portugal’s matches in the Qatar World Cup and watched exciting games of Manchester United in England. Even when Ronaldo moved to Al Nassr, IShowSpeed still found a way to see him play in Saudi Arabia. Finally, during the UEFA Euro Qualifiers match between Portugal and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the streamer got the chance to meet and talk with Cristiano Ronaldo. It was a very important moment for IShowSpeed. The long-awaited meeting was recorded in a YouTube video.
The photos on Instagram that get the most likes usually show famous athletes, popular singers, and other well-known people. Right now, the photo with the most likes is of Messi celebrating his World Cup win, which broke the record previously held by the World Record Egg. Messi and Ronaldo both have seven photos among the top 20 most liked. While IShowSpeed’s post may not reach the same level of fame as these soccer legends, it still has over 14 million likes, securing the 45th spot. As Darren “IShowSpeed” keeps going on his journey, his unforgettable meeting with Cristiano Ronaldo becomes evident. It highlights how passion, strong dedication, and the ability to connect with an audience using the universally loved language of football can make a big impact.
