After multiple wasted opportunities, American YouTuber IShowSpeed finally met his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, and broke down in tears.
The 18-year-old had previously missed the opportunity to see the illustrious striker in action after arriving in the UK from the US and learning that he had been excluded from the Manchester United team due to illness.
After Portugal defeated Bosnia & Herzegovina on Saturday night, June 17, Speed’s fantasy came true.
All thanks to Ronaldo’s teammate Rafael Leo, who Speed spotted and took advantage of to assist him in stopping as Ronaldo was leaving the stadium.
a transfixed Speed met Ronaldo outside his car and fell to the ground at his feet. At the 38-year-old, he said, “Oh my God, I love you,” and they took a selfie.
Along with recreating Ronaldo’s legendary celebration, they also hugged while being guarded by security personnel.
