Popular Youtuber and online streamer IShowSpeed showcased his admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo by recreating one of the Portuguese great’s iconic moments in a livestream challenge. Over the last few years, Speed has grown to astronomic popularity for his over-the-top live streams.
In a recent video posted on his Instagram handle, IShowSpeed was spotted wearing a Ronaldo Portugal t-shirt with the jersey number 17. In the clip, Speed confronted a challenge where a football was suspended in the air at 2.93 meters, and he had to pull off a header jump just like Ronaldo.
Known for surprising athleticism, Speed completed the jump and successfully pulled off the header before celebrating with Ronaldo’s iconic Siu celebration. The 19-year-old who is an avid supporter of Ronaldo was extremely euphoric after pulling off the challenge just like his idol.
The 2024-25 season hasn’t started well for CR7 as his team Al Nassr suffered a massive 1-4 against arch-rivals Al Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup final. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner scored the opening goal just before half-time in the season’s curtain-raiser between Saudi Pro League champions and runners-up. The new Saudi Pro League season will begin on Thursday, August 22 when Al Nassr take on Al Raed.
