Almost at the same time that the news was announced that La Pulga surpassed Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland as the world’s top soccer player, Speed ​​did his thing and became a trend due to his incredible reaction. It is more than known that one of the most recognized streamers in the United States is a faithful fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. For this reason, his presence at the gala at the Chatelet Theater, facing the Seine River in Paris, did not go unnoticed.

Speed ​​first had a striking stance at the moment when Messi was chosen as the winner. “Ronaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldo…” he repeated over and over again, seconds before David Beckham’s announcement. “What! What!” was the surprise that Speed ​​got, even though the Portuguese was not among the top 30 votes. In fact, CR7 finished in 829th place. “It can’t be Messi again, not Ronaldo,” he protested.

Another top moment for the YouTuber was when he was surprised to see Emiliano Martínez after the award ceremony. With praise for Dibu for his great performance in the World Cup in Qatar, a fact that led him to win the Lev Yashin award for Best Goalkeeper, Speed ​​had a very fun back and forth with the Argentine goalkeeper who made it clear to him why “there is no chances” that Cristiano is better than Messi.

Precisely, Nole had given Messi great praise before the ceremony. “I want Messi to win. Mbappé and Haaland had a great season, but Messi is another level. In moments of great pressure, Messi is one of the best in history. He looks for the best game from him when he is most important. He is a legend,” said the tennis player in dialogue with ESPN.

Seconds later, on the same red carpet, he interrupted an interview with the Spanish YouTuber Ibai Llanos to greet and hug the Argentine captain, who was present at the gala with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo and their three children.

“First of all I want to thank all the people who voted for me and made me the winner of this award. I want to share it with all my teammates on the Argentine team. This award comes hand in hand with what I achieved with the National Team,” Messi began his speech after receiving the award. “Today I can be here thanks to my teammates. I come to represent everyone and today we are here with Lautaro (Martínez), Julián (Álvarez) and Dibu (Martínez). “This is a gift for the entire group, for the coaching staff and all the people,” he continued.

La Pulga also recognized his main competitors in this gala, the Frenchman Kylian Mbappé and the Norwegian Erling Haaland: “I don’t want to forget Haaland and Kylian who had an incredible year. Both on an individual and collective level. Erling had an incredible year and achieved everything. I know that they will be here in the coming years winning this award.” While he emphasized the young people who are pushing. “I see many here and I have no doubt that I will enjoy very good football for a long time because of the quality. I was lucky to be at this gala many nights and the players are renewing themselves but the level never drops and we will continue for many more years.”

Obviously he had a special paragraph for his family: “I want to thank my wife and my children. For having been in my entire career. For having been in the worst moments I have ever had and for having helped me achieve my goals and dreams in football. Without you it would not have been possible to have this tour all the years.”

However, the emotional peak was when he remembered Maradona: “Finally I want to mention Diego. Today is his birthday. I think there is no better place than to do it in a place surrounded by players, former players, coaches, people who like football. Wherever you are, happy birthday Diego. I also share this with you and with all of Argentina.” Then he referred to Pelusa again and stated: “It was what he liked, the football atmosphere. In the last galas he was present and came more often because previously due to different situations he was not there. Having Diego present at these events was a very nice plus.”

“The awards are collective and individual awards come hand in hand. Today here we see many players from City, which today is the best team in the world. It is special to have these recognitions, but they are always secondary and the important thing is the collective, always,” he added.
