IShowSpeed has made a name for himself being one of the biggest fans of Ronaldo. Viewers have seen him chanting about the Football icon since he was first introduced to football and he had seen Ronaldo’s gameplay. Speed has never missed a single match in which the football icon is participating. The streamer makes sure he can be stadium-present wherever Ronaldo has gone, may it be Portugal or Al Nassr, if not at least viewing him on live telecasting.
Darren got the opportunity to fulfill his dreams of meeting Ronaldo when he flew to Portugal where the football icon played for his country. Speed made sure to wait by the exit, meet Ronaldo, and click pictures with him as it became the best day in Speed’s life. He also shows the same amount of craziness and energy when he packs Cristiano Ronaldo on the FIFA/EAFC video game.
