iShowSpeed, a well-known YouTuber, finally had the chance to meet his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, following Portugal’s triumphant three-nil victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Saturday, June 17.

As an unwavering fan, Speed had been relentlessly attempting to meet the Al-Nassr superstar for several months, encountering disappointments on multiple occasions.

As reported by  MARCA , his long-cherished dream became a reality after Ronaldo, instrumental in securing Portugal’s flawless start to the 2024 UEFA Euros Qualifiers with their third consecutive win at Benfica’s Estadio da Luz against Bosnia, encountered his international teammate Rafael Leao.

Standing alongside Speed, Leao seized the opportunity to stop Ronaldo, leading to a mesmerizing moment for the American YouTuber. Visibly awestruck, Speed watched his ultimate desires unfold before his eyes as he stood face-to-face with his idol.

This incredible incident, captured in a viral video, has garnered immense praise from fans, who have commended Leao for his role in facilitating Speed’s memorable encounter with Ronaldo, per  Latestly .

“Rafael Leao is the true goat. He stopped the car of Ronaldo and arranged the meet-up with Speed.”

@Hamemeee added:

“Leao really stopped his own car, came down, talked with speed, and then went back to arrange this meetup by stopping Ronaldo’s car. Nah, this guy is a true one.”

Another user @MustafaMS24 commended Leao’s effort in ensuring the meet-up:

“My boy Leao is the best blud came out of his car and went to see Ronaldo and came back, waited with speed and called Ronaldo out of his car to meet him.”
