Argentina were playing their second group-stage match against Austria at the FIFA World Cup 2026 when Lionel Messi missed an early penalty.
IShowSpeed, who is widely known as one of Cristiano Ronaldo’s biggest supporters, reacted live to Messi’s penalty miss. He celebrated wildly when Messi failed to convert the spot kick. Speed was seen jumping, flipping and dancing, making a huge deal out of the moment. He even went on to tease Messi fans present in the stadium.
Speed is a hardcore Ronaldo supporter, and therefore his reaction was not surprising. Ever since the World Cup began, the Messi vs Ronaldo debate has once again become one of the biggest discussions in football.
Messi Responds In Style
The trajectory of the match changed later on, when Messi bounced back strongly and scored two goals in the same match as Argentina went on to defeat Austria by 2-0.
Later, the Argentine captain’s brace helped his side secure victory and also he became the all-time leading goalscorer in the history of FIFA World Cup. He was also awarded the Player of the Match for his performance.
With those two goals, his tally in the FIFA World Cup 2026 reached a total of five goals.
It will now be interesting to see how the contest between Ronaldo and Messi unfolds in the ongoing tournament and, of course, how IShowSpeed reacts to it moving forward.
