Darren Watkins Jr, famously known as iShowSpeed, has long been Cristiano Ronaldo's most ardent supporter. #
However, his unyielding loyalty to Ronaldo seemed to waver when Lionel Messi made his debut for Inter Miami in Major League Soccer on July 21.
Speed had the incredible opportunity to meet his football hero, Ronaldo — a dream which unfolded before his eyes just over a month ago, MARCA reports.
But all this changed when he attended the DRV PNK Stadium alongside 21,000 spectators, eagerly awaiting Messi's debut for Inter Miami.
In a stunning turn of events, Messi left an indelible mark on the match, announcing his presence with a mesmerizing last-minute winning free-kick, bending the ball past the human wall and the outstretched goalkeeper for Cruz Azul, per Mirror.
