I Met Ronaldo

I got exclusive access seats to watch Ronaldo and he's literally right behind me. But I also got access to meet other players, access to the private VAR rooms. And today I want to experience all of this, starting with Al Etihad. I'm about to walk inside the Al Etihad Stadium and I've got everything I need. First, my bib that will let me in everywhere, I kind of hope. Then, my Benzema shirt that hopefully I get signed. And of course, I've got my Revolut card that I'm going to need later on. The players are literally about to walk into the stadium. I'm not going to lie, I need to remove these glasses. I want to see Benzema in person. Let's see how many players I can fist bump. Hey, no, first missed fist bump. Good luck. Okay, I did miss a couple more fist bumps until this happened. We have Romariño coming in. Romariño, please, Romariño, I love you. Thank you, bro, thank you. I don't know who this one is, but I'm excited. Yo, my friend, thank you, thank you. I don't know when we're going to get Benzema, but he will come soon. That's Kante, that's Kante. Okay, Kante, Kante. Kante, Engolo, please, just one fist bump. No, oh no, not a fist bump from Kante. We will get him later in the video though. He's not going to escape me. But with security asking me to go to my seat, I was starting to lose hope of seeing Benzema until I finally saw him. Oh my God. Benzema is right there, Benzema, and that's Ibanez too. Yo, Ibanez, please, yes, Benzema, please, please. Oh my God, I love you. Oh my God, we just got in. I've always wanted to fist bump Benzema, that's crazy. And this is only the start of the video. I still have to watch Benzema play, and then he has to sign my shirt. But first, let's see our seats. Wow, this is actually beautiful. You don't see many of stadiums like this in Europe. And when the game starts, this entire zone is going to have flags being waved. That's going to be super cool. And you know what's even cooler? The VIP seats that I'm going to get to watch the game. So I guess we go there now. Bro, this is arguably one of the best seats I've ever sat on. It's padded. Oh my God, this is so good. The space is huge. Bro, I've literally got all the legroom in the world. I could do this and there is still space. And the best part is that I actually got my friends with me this time. It's good for a change. It only took two years to get good seats. It will probably take another two to get them again. And so it was almost time for the match. Right after it ends, I'm going to go to the media zone to hopefully get Benzema's signature on my shirt. That is, if he wins. Even if they have some of the best fans I have seen, they haven't won any of their last three games this season. Which means Benzema is desperate for a win. If he loses, he probably won't sign anything. Let's hope Aliti had wins. And so they tried to score a goal quickly. But they couldn't find a way through. Not even with Benzema. Oh, Benzema has it outside the box. Benzema has the ball, boys. Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please. Wow, nothing happened. And so after 20 minutes with no real chances, I decided to take a break. All right, boys, I'm going to pee. If they score whilst I pee, that'd be kind of hilarious. Because it happened to me before. In my head, this plan made perfect sense. This area going to the toilet got crazy. But just as I was coming back, I heard these noises. Benzema just scored a goal. And Francis Misso, he keeps doing this all the time. The game finished. I tried to go inside and get Benzema's signature. And he completely ignored me. Karim, sorry. Well, I couldn't get it here. We're going to try inside. But it's OK. He has to walk through this. I'm going to put the shirt here. Here is my pen. My strategy is going to be to just cry until he sees me and signs it. But with that rejection fresh on my mind, and the players taking a long time to come out, I wasn't feeling very confident. I'm so nervous. And I really, really want this signature. So I needed a win to get my confidence back up. Once I secured this photo, my confidence went up. And I got all the team to stop for me. Well, almost all. I don't know why Kante didn't want to take a photo. But I still love him. It's completely fine. I understand. But I still have Benzema. I hope he doesn't say no. But the longer I waited, the least chances I had at getting that signature. Until this door opened one more time. But just as he was about to leave, I managed to pull out his shirt and get him to finally sign it. This video is just getting started. And we have already got a Ballon d'Or signature. And we still need to visit Al Hilal and Al Nacer and meet Ronaldo. But before I see those clubs, the boys need to compete a challenge. I'm in front of the Al Hilal store. For the next 10 minutes, the boys are going to use their Revolut card and buy the following items one by one. It's important they get all of them because one of these items will get signed later in the video. Once the boys buy all the items, they can use the remaining time to buy whatever they want for themselves. But as soon as the time hits 10 minutes, their time is done. Okay, let's go. First item that we need to get is a home name or share. Whilst the boys get the items, let me tell you about Revolut. Revolut is a financial super app with great travel features that I'm going to be using throughout this entire trip. We got the first one. Now we need to find an away name or share. It's right here. That's two. The next thing we need is a toy for Crunch Dog. One of the features I like the most is that I can literally top up my card straight away with Apple Pay. What about a scarf for the dog? Yeah. Okay, let's find some scarves. Okay, so we've got three items out of four. Now we need a retro item. I don't know if we can get this one, boys. I'm not going to lie. We've got five minutes, bro. Because of Revolut's security features, I don't have to worry about the boys breaking the rules as I can freeze their cards anytime through their app. Sadly, the boys didn't need to cheat as they found this guy with a retro shirt who somehow agreed to give them his shirt. But will they manage to get something for themselves and pay before I freeze the card? With Revolut, you can literally pay with your Visa card abroad and not worry about any hidden fees, just like the boys did right now. So if you want to help me continue to make these videos, please ask everybody you know to download Revolut. You will get £20 after your first transaction. And to top it up, you could be the lucky person to win £1,000 if you sign up with my link in the description. Time for the next club. And now I'm currently outside the Al-Hilal Stadium. The first thing I got is a media pass and I'm going to get a stadium tour right now. You don't understand how powerful this is. This is the first time I ever get a physical one. Yesterday, we only had a VIP. Now I have real power. All right, boys. I'm about to get in for the first time into the press conference rooms. This is literally where the players and managers come and talk before and after the game. And I can even sit in here. Neymar has sat in this place before. He smells like him. Let's go to the next place. We're about to walk out into the arena just like a football player would. Boys, this is the walk Neymar would have done. Oh, my God. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is one of the craziest things I've ever done. This is literally where the players walk out into the pitch for real games. This is what they get to see in a football match. Oh, my God. I can't lie, boys. This is one of the best-looking stadiums I've ever been in. And we still have a lot more to visit. Also, the coolest thing about this entire stadium has to be those seats. I think that's the VIP area where even the king would sit. You cannot see that and not think that's like the most VIP seat you have ever seen. I cannot believe I'm literally walking right next to the pitch. They would never allow me to do this in any other stadium. But there was one forbidden part of the stadium that I was really excited about. Oh, my God. Wow. It feels like grass, but the best grass I've ever touched in my life. Now, the next thing I'm about to show you is a $500 million bench. I'm going to sit on it. I have to. I have to sit. Neymar 100% sat on one of these benches. And now we're here. This is crazy. Not gonna lie, having pitch access before the game was great. But thanks to this new bid, I'm also going to have access during the warmup and the game. Right behind me, the Al-Hilal team is just doing a chill rondo. Just behind me, 40 minutes before the game. That is the most outrageous access I've ever received in my life. And we still need to see Ronaldo tomorrow. But before I show you Ronaldo, I gotta find a seat and watch today's game. The one thing I've always wanted to do is sit right by the pitch. And I'm gonna achieve my long dream here. The pitch is literally right behind me. Bro, I have the best seat in the entire place. Just to give more context, this is the area where I'm going to see the match. Look how close Mitrovic is to me. And so, with the warmups done, the game is happening right here, bro. But my dream is to see a goal in front of me. They also scored this crazy second goal. But it was on the other side of the pitch, so I couldn't record it down here. On the second half, they were finally attacking towards my side, so I could see everything in front of me. There is an attack on my side. Sadly, it was the other team who scored a goal. On the other side! Al-Ahly just scored. So sad, because in the first half, they would have celebrated on this side. And despite many Aguilar attempts, it really looked like I wasn't going to see any goals on this side. Until this happened. Oh my god. There is a free kick happening right in front of me. If they score here, and they celebrate on my side, this might be the happiest I've ever been in my life. They might score here. But just as the game was about to finish, a miracle happened. So the game just finished, and I'm in the mixed zone. How many Al-Ahly signatures can I get? Boom. Wow, you have a great signature. Thank you. That was a long signature. Just one signature? Okay. The first one I missed. Nice. This next player, I really want his signature. The Brazilian goat. Just one signature? If that's okay? Thank you very much. I need a signature like this. Thanks. Wow. What, up to three signatures? I then managed to secure five more players' signatures. Sorry, one signature here? Your FIFA cards are really good. You always get a touch, you know? Thank you. No, thanks to you, bro. You're the one that saves my team. Thank you. Not sure how many players I have so far, but I'm pretty happy. We got Malcolm and a lot of other future stars. I just don't know their names. Sorry. I am very sad I didn't get Neymar, though. He's injured. Literally just like me. Would you sign this, please? No good? Oh, well, I will have it in my mind. Thanks. I got another signature. It's just not here. It's there. This rejection hurt. I can't lie. But there was no time to be sad when I had one player left. Culibaly, please use your signature. Bro, every year, your FIFA card, so good. You always get touch, 79 pace. I tried. Can I take one photo? Well, boys, I don't know how many signatures I got and players I met, but the only people I missed were Emilio Comisavage, Ruben Neves, and Maris, and Firmino. But it's OK because tomorrow I am meeting Ronaldo. Let's go. But before we go to the Alnasser game, I'm going to show you something very cool. This is the VAR room right here. In a match day, you normally have a referee. This is their screen. Here you can see that actual room. And any time a decision is made, this is actually broadcasted on TV. You put these headphones on and now I can communicate with the people in the game. Hey, bro. Yeah, you should subscribe to Foot Crunch. Yeah. Can you tell the stadium? Thank you. Perfect. This is literally how every important decision in a football game is made. I could be making a decision right now that would change the future. But I'm not going to do that. Let's just go to the Alnasser game. This is the closest I've ever been to Ronaldo. Oh my God. I'll get closer to him though. Let's go. Looks like Ronaldo is going to be on that side. We just need to get close to him. Right now I'm the most nervous I've ever been because behind me, Laporte, Sadio Mane, Cristiano Ronaldo. Literally some of the best players in the world and they're right there, bro. It's OK. The goal is to meet him. We're going to get closer. OK, so today's plan is simple. First, I'll finish watching Ronaldo warm up. Then, I'll watch the first half from the VIP seats we saw yesterday. After that, I will watch the second half on beach side again. And when the game finishes, I will move near the tunnel to wait for both teams to come out. Once there, I'll have a chance to meet some players, including Ronaldo. I hope. Right now Ronaldo is taking shots at the goal. I have one goal that he shoots me in the face. I would love to be shot by Ronaldo. Oh, and I just missed the ball. OK, let's wait for his turn. Oh, Ronaldo, Ronaldo. Please shoot me. Can I get hit in the face by Ronaldo? Please. No. He hit the post. That could have been me. Bro, that is the ball Ronaldo just shot. Sadly, it didn't hit me in the face. Oh, he has another one. Ronaldo didn't hit me. The warm up done and Ronaldo motivating his team. Oh, my God. It was time to finally check those VIP seats. All right, boys. For this time, I actually got a padded seat that looks like a sofa couch. It's actually very comfortable. I have a lot of space for my legs. This seat is actually super comfortable and exclusive because I have nobody around me. So nice. I hope he scores. So he's happy. He wants to take a photo with me. Maybe my best friend or whatever. Please. And so the game started with Alnasser quickly trying to find Ronaldo. Ronaldo, please score. Nope. OK, he didn't do anything. And even though his team couldn't find him, Ronaldo didn't want to give up. A chance for Ronaldo. Things weren't looking good. Ronaldo. He's feeling like scoring. Nothing. But Ronaldo kept pushing for that first goal. No. Ronaldo nearly assisted. And just when I thought the first half was done, Ronaldo got a free kick. Thanks to this handball. Ronaldo right now has a free kick. Let's see if he can score. Bro, he's literally doing it right in front of me. If he scores this. Wow. It's a goal. Please, Ronaldo, please. Please, brother. Please. Ricky never gets it right, bro. And so the first half ended with no goals. All right, boys. I literally just made it pitch side. In case you're wondering what my set looks like. This is it. And that's my view of the game. And so the second half started. Alnasser just scored. And they're celebrating right in front of me. With 20 minutes left. All I wanted was for Alnasser to secure the win. So Ronaldo could be happy. And that is exactly what happened here. Oh my God. They just scored. Again, they're literally celebrating. And so with the game secured. Ronaldo was subbed off. And it was time for me to get close to the tunnels. I'm being taken right now to possibly meet Ronaldo. That's where the players are now. I'm going to the tunnel. This is the most nervous I've ever been. All I had to do was wait for the match to end. Right in this spot. Surrounded by security. All right, boys. The match has ended. I'm going to literally wait here. That's the players' tunnel. And that's the players. They're going to come this way. And I'll just say hi to Ronaldo. Bear in mind, I have a lot of security right next to me. And so the team started to come out. But there was one big problem. You okay? On your guru. Every single player was ignoring me. Even the manager. That's it. Alnasser, manager. Good game. And to make things worse. More security was starting to get in the way. But there was one player who didn't care about that. This photo was just what I needed to get my confidence back up. Before Ronaldo. Ronaldo is literally right there, bro. Ronaldo. He's coming this way. This is the moment I've been waiting for my entire life. Look at him. Okay, boys. I couldn't meet Ronaldo. I was literally this close to him. But I didn't get his attention. It's okay, though. If you love this video, you will love the next one. Click here if you want to watch it. I really thought I was gonna meet Ronaldo.
