On Friday, Qatar hosted the celebrity ‘Match for Hope’, which saw some of the greatest retired footballers compete against each other, as well as celebrities from all walks of life.
But during this match, the one who stole the show was none other than the American streamer iShowSpeed. He had been putting on a show for the week leading up to Friday’s game, but on this day he made every casual football fan live out a vicarious dream. He multiplied the antics and each of them made people laugh out loud.
On Team Chunkz, Speed shared the locker room with Arsène Wenger, who left him on the bench despite the streamer’s request to start. He also had a funny moment with Hazard before the match and another with Roberto Carlos after the match. Spanish striker David Villa scored twice. Eden Hazard was one of the best players of the match. The match ended with a 7-5 victory for Team Chukz against Team Aboflah. Speed eventually took the field and made people laugh even more with his performance. In particular, his interactions with Kaká and Didier Drogba.
Speed shares the spotlight with football legends
But Speed didn’t just play, he tackled Kaká just minutes after he entered the field. A dangerous move that many considered unacceptable on the part of the famous streamer. Speed was punished for the move and then missed the most obvious chance after an assist from Hazard. Aboflah’s team was made up more of former professional players with Kaká, Drogba, Claude Makelele and Tim Cahill.
The Ivorian legend scored twice, but it was not enough for his team to win. After the match, Speed made another splash. He approached Didier Drogba to ask him if he was Paul Pogba’s dad…
