The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have fan followings all over the world. The duo has gained massive fans in every part of the globe over the years during their soccer career. But some fans are ready to go the extra mile for their idol, and Ronaldo has found one such fan.
American YouTuber, IShowSpeed is known for idolizing Ronaldo ever since he became famous. The YouTuber has been trying to meet Ronaldo and infamously has sniffed on a bed Ronaldo slept on, in order to meet him. But the American’s dream seems to have come true recently after Portugal beat Bosnia Herzegovina. The YouTuber met his idol after he was helped by friends, Rafael Leao and Rui Costa, who are Ronaldo’s teammates.
Speed released a video on his Instagram reacting to everything that happened. In the video, he could be seen in emotions as he thanked his friends for helping him meet Ronaldo.
He said: “Shoutout to Rafael Leao, Shoutout to Rui Costa, I met him, bro, I finally met him”.
Speed further stated how elated he felt after meeting his idol. The YouTuber was full of joy and said that he doesn’t care about anything after meeting Ronaldo. He admitted that he could even die after meeting Ronaldo and he got his reward after everything he had been through.
He said: “After all that I’ve been through I met him, bro, it’s not easy bro, I don’t care about nothing right now bro, I can die right now, Portugal for life bro.”
It’s so heartwarming to see such instances of players with their fans. We recently saw how elated the Chinese match intruder was after meeting Messi even though he had to face the consequences.

During the game against Bosnia, a fan intruded onto the pitch and hugged Ronaldo. The fan also bent in front of his idol and touched his feet. Speed was sitting in the stands watching this and was left devastated. The intruding fan later ran across the field and was joined by the crowd as he did Ronaldo’s ‘Siuuuuu.’
Speed said: “He ran on the field bro, he ran on the field, bro what?? He just met Ronaldo, he ran on the field.”
It would have been hard for Speed to see another fan living his dream and hugging Ronaldo. But at the end of the day, Speed fulfilled his dream as well so he shouldn’t have any complaints now.
