Darren “iShowSpeed” Watkins Jr. was back with another World Cup 2026 livestream, this time broadcasting the Brazil vs Japan match — and he even helped Japanese fans clean up the stadium after the match ended.

iShowSpeed has done everything throughout the tournament to date, ranging from cheering for Cristiano Ronaldo during the Portugal matches to trolling Lionel Messi during the Argentina matches. The YouTuber has been broadcasting the FIFA World Cup 2026 matches, and even took along his father and brother for some of them. The Brazil vs Japan World Cup match is the latest iShowSpeed streamed, and he even supported an emotional fan in the stadium.

iShowSpeed started his livestream in a humble way, telling his fans that he wanted to help the Japanese fans clean up the stadium after the match ended. However, he then got into the thick of things and expressed his disbelief that Brazil came close to scoring twice and missed both times.

He then expressed his shock when Japan scored the opening goal against Brazil. The YouTuber also met Monkey D. Luffy and was annoyed by a Messi fan for chanting the player’s name in what was a breathless first-half for the American.

This particular broadcast was a little less chaotic, as Speed’s brother Jamal was there, and the brothers weren’t taking part in the usual banter and hijinks. However, Speed hugged Brazilian content creator Negrete after he broke down into tears after Japan’s first goal. He also praised Japan and talked about their playstyle, stating, “They don’t make risk passes or play aggressively.” The first half was dominated by Japan, and Speed was frustrated with Brazil’s lacklustre performance.

Brazil returned strong in the second half, equalizing the score 1-1, and the team scored again against Japan, increasing the score to 2-1. Soon after, the whistle was blown, and Brazil beat Japan. iShowSpeed saw an emotional Japanese fan almost start crying because of the country’s exit from the World Cup and went on to comfort him. Then Speed helped Japanese fans clean up the stadium, ensuring no trash was left behind.

iShowSpeed also announced his full 2026 World Cup tour schedule during the livestream ahead of some exciting knockout matches. The YouTuber will be going to the Ivory Coast vs Norway, USA vs Bosnia, Portugal vs Croatia, and Argentina vs Cape Verde matches. Out of these four, the streamer’s best ones will likely be the Portugal and Argentina matches.

There he will undoubtedly become an unashamed fanboy for Ronaldo and a troll for Messi. These realistic reactions to his favorite and disliked footballers are enjoyed by his fans, and he is likely to have a packed schedule all the way to the final on July 19.
