Popular American streamer and blogger IShowSpeed once again found himself in the spotlight during the 2026 World Cup, staging an unusual stunt before the quarter-final clash between Argentina and Switzerland.
The well-known Cristiano Ronaldo fan showed up in an Argentina national team jersey after his followers jokingly reminded him about the so-called 'Speed curse.' On social media, a long-running meme suggests that whichever national team shirt the blogger wears, that team soon suffers a defeat.
IShowSpeed’s decision instantly sparked a wave of discussion among fans. Many Argentina supporters took the blogger’s antics with good humor, while some even urged him to take off the jersey as soon as possible, hoping to avoid tempting fate for the reigning world champions.
