Ibai reveals how he really felt during Messi Twitch interview Ibai\/YoutubeSpanish streamer Ibai Llanos has revealed he was more than a little nervous when he got to interview the one and only football legend Lionel Messi. Ibai has become one of the top streamers on Twitch as a whole, and his exclusive interviews with some of the top football stars in the world doesn\u2019t hurt his growth either. It was this access that was the focus of a New York Times report on the streamer on September 15. Here, the streamer revealed how it felt to meet the man who\u2019s arguably the biggest name in sports today. View this post on Instagram Anyone would understandably have some nerves meeting Messi, let alone interviewing him on Twitch for tens of thousands of viewers, and according to Ibai, it was close to overwhelming. \u201cIt was a bit like having vertigo,\u201d Llanos was quoted in the Times discussing the meet and greet on Twitch. Considering how massive of an opportunity it was, it\u2019s no surprise Ibai was feeling starstruck a bit. That wasn\u2019t the first time the two had met though; the streamer also attended Messi\u2019s Barcelona going away party, which the superstar mentioned in the later interview. After Ibai jokingly asked if he had eaten too much at the party, the newly-minted PSG player said he had behaved \u201cvery well,\u201d hardly eating anything. Timestamp at 8:40 for mobile viewers. \u201cI don\u2019t know if you eat a lot or a little, that day you didn\u2019t eat anything,\u201d Messi told the streamer. \u201cI don\u2019t know if it was the nerves or what it was.\u201d Ibai\u2019s association with Messi and other top footballers is, as you might expect, doing wonders for his numbers on Twitch and YouTube. For example, over 2 million people tuned into watch his co-stream of Messi\u2019s first match with PSG. Now that he\u2019s been to the top of the mountain, and felt like it too, we\u2019ll have to see if Ibai manages to be a little more cool calm and collected the next time he meets Messi, or any other big-name footballer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
