BREAKING: IShowSpeed has just shared his electrifying reaction to football icon Lionel Messi in the highly-anticipated Adidas ad for the FIFA World Cup 2026. The 20-year-old streamer, known for his allegiance to Cristiano Ronaldo, has been vocal about his admiration for Messi, and his latest response is making waves online.
In a clip shared by IShowSpeedHQ on X (formerly Twitter) just hours ago, Speed’s genuine excitement is palpable as he watches the advertisement featuring Messi alongside rising star Lamine Yamal. As the ad begins, Speed enthusiastically shouts, “Is that Lamine Yamal? What the hell is Lamine doing?”
With the backdrop of upbeat music, Speed’s attention is captured as Messi appears. The streamer exclaims, “Oh my God,” when he spots Messi’s signature number 10 jersey. His excitement peaks as he watches Messi walk in slow motion, leading him to scream, “Messi!”—repeatedly expressing his disbelief and joy at the sight of the legendary player.
The live stream was a spectacle in itself, attracting 45,867 viewers and generating an astonishing 45,673,391 live comments. Speed’s reaction underscores the emotional connection fans have with their sports idols.
Earlier this year in June, IShowSpeed had a brief encounter with Messi at the Hard Rock Stadium during the FIFA Club World Cup.

One fan remarked, “Speed should stay on the ground. Why is he expecting everyone to give him importance?” while another quipped, “No, it was messy.”
As the FIFA World Cup 2026 approaches, this latest interaction has fans buzzing, not just about Messi’s role in the ad, but also about how influencers like IShowSpeed are engaging with the sport. The ad is expected to generate significant buzz as it showcases both established and emerging talent in football.
