During the chaotic stream, IShowSpeed asked Zlatan Ibrahimovic: “English or Spanish?” The footballer, unfamiliar with the trend, was confused and replied: “What do you mean… speak…” The YouTuber then challenged the Swede to answer with one of the two options.
After thinking for a few seconds, the 42-year-old, not understanding the question, replied “English,” to which the 19-year-old replied, “The first one to move is gay.”
This hilarious streaming video, which has gone viral on the internet, will leave both of them frozen in their seats for minutes.
IShowSpeed mispronounces Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s last name
IShowSpeed, who has established himself as one of the most popular content creators with his sense of humor, as mentioned above, met Zlatan Ibrahimovic during his latest live stream in Milan.
The pair were spotted greeting each other, but the controversial Cristiano Ronaldo fan mispronounced the football legend’s surname, prompting the former striker to correct him on his pronunciation of Speed.
The streamer, who has had a very eventful tour across Europe, including the Euros, also took part in a skills challenge.
The American YouTuber tries to show off his soccer skills and ends up collapsing on the court, and even performs a backflip in an attempt to get Ibrahimovic’s attention, saying “this is something I can do”, but the former AC Milan star is not impressed and walks off, saying he doesn’t want Speed on his team.
“Friends, we are here to play football,” Zlatan says in the video. He goes on to tell Speed, “This is not a show, my friend. I want the team to win.” The 19-year-old apologizes, with Zlatan telling the young streamer that if he shows this to his coach, “he wouldn’t accept it.”
Speed, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr., recently had the opportunity to do IRL streaming in a number of countries, including Albania, Germany, Norway, and Sweden. A known Cristiano Ronaldo fan, he was also heartbroken after his favorite soccer team, Portugal, lost to France in the quarterfinals.
Meanwhile, the content creator had a terrifying experience while visiting Norway for a live stream, where he was attacked by a mob of over-excited fans, leading him to post that he would never visit Norway again.
“I don’t think I’ll ever come here again. I’m not even trolling. I love all the Norwegian fans but they don’t listen,” Speed said on the stream before stopping. He went on to say that he’s been to a few countries before and that they were “great” for him, but described his experience in Norway as “inhuman.”
