In a recent charity match, YouTuber IShowSpeed caused controversy by making a reckless tackle on Brazilian legend Kaka. The match, which was attended by famous footballers such as Roberto Carlos, Eden Hazard, Didier Drogba, and David Villa, was meant to raise money for a good cause. However, IShowSpeed's tackle on Kaka has caused quite a stir.
During the first half of the match, IShowSpeed charged towards Kaka, who was in possession of the ball. With full force, IShowSpeed made a studs-up tackle on Kaka's calf, causing him to fall to the ground. Instead of showing remorse, IShowSpeed celebrated his tackle, much to the dismay of the spectators and fellow players.
The referee, who booked IShowSpeed for the dangerous tackle, may have been lenient in allowing him to stay on the pitch. However, many believe that IShowSpeed should have been sent off for his actions. Even ex-footballers, such as Ian Wright, have expressed their disapproval of IShowSpeed's behavior. Wright commented on a video of the tackle, saying that IShowSpeed should not be allowed to play with football legends if he cannot control himself.
It seems that IShowSpeed may have targeted Kaka due to a pre-match exchange in which the Brazilian downplayed the YouTuber's chances of winning against him. In a video before the match, IShowSpeed can be heard jokingly saying that he will beat Kaka and even offers to bet on it.
However, IShowSpeed's performance on the pitch did not live up to his pre-match banter. Despite being set up for an open goal by Hazard, IShowSpeed missed multiple scoring opportunities. Even his teammate, Roberto Carlos, was not impressed and confronted him during halftime, telling him to improve his control and shooting.
After the match, IShowSpeed expressed his disappointment in his performance and even contemplated quitting football altogether. It is worth noting that the YouTuber's rise to fame was through making FIFA videos and not through his football skills. He may require surgery for a knee injury sustained during the match, which could put an end to his football career.
Overall, IShowSpeed's behavior on the pitch has sparked outrage and raised questions about whether he should be allowed to play in charity matches with professional football legends. It is a reminder that even in a friendly match, players should always show respect and sportsmanship towards their opponents.
