Kaka received a heavy tackle from IShowSpeed during the game. The 19-year-old slid his way into a tackle on the former Real Madrid man. The referee showed Speed a yellow card as Kaka was fortunate enough to walk away from the challenge unhurt.
Kaka was part of Team Chunkz who won the game 7-5. The Brazilian scored a trademark Kaka goal where he ran through the defense on his own before applying a coolly placing the ball in the bottom left corner. IShowSpeed and Team Aboflah were disappointed to lose the game after a terrible performance from the 19-year-old.
IshowSpeed wants to quit soccer after his disappointing performance
The young American streamer had a very forgetful evening in Qatar, to say the least. To start with, IShowSpeed was disheartened to know that he would start on the bench. Speed compared the incident to Cristiano Ronaldo getting benched against Morocco in the FIFA World Cup 2022 quaterfinals. He then entered the pitch with much enthusiasm even taking some motivation from Brazilian icon Roberto Carlos.

However, Speed could not do much to help his team as he missed many open goals which his teammate Eden Hazard beautifully set up. A disappointed IShowSpeed announced his desire to retire from soccer after the match.
Despite this, the American streamer had some memorable interactions with soccer players in Qatar. He met Ivory Coast and Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, whom he asked a very surprising question. Speed had a conversation with former Arsenal coach, the legendary Arsene Wenger who was managing Speed’s opponents. The 19-year-old streamer hilariously challenged the French coach that he could outrun his opponents and gave the coach some tactical advice
Speed also had the honor of sharing a soccer pitch with some of the biggest soccer icons like David Villa, Kaka, Didier Drogba, etc. Fans would be excited to see the next adventure in IShowSpeed’s soccer journey.
