Speed, a YouTube star who is a big fan of legendary footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, finally got his wish after he met the Portuguese on Saturday.

Speed was over the moon after meeting Ronaldo outside his car after the match between Portugal and Bosnia.

The American shouted “Oh my God, I love you” at the 38-year-old and took a selfie. The duo also recreated Ronaldo's famous celebration together and shared a hug.

Earlier, Bernardo Silva opened the scoring while Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes scored a brace during Portugal’s 3-0 win over Bosnia in the Euro 2024 qualifying round.

Portugal have notched up 13 goals and conceded none while winning their first three matches in Group J and are top of the six-team section, two points clear of Slovakia and five above Luxembourg, with the top two sides advancing to next year's finals in Germany.

Portugal will face Iceland on Tuesday and a win could take the former a step closer to securing qualification.

"Our attitude as a team was spectacular but the difficulty for us was more to do with mental fatigue than anything physical," said Martinez.

"We played more with our hearts than our heads. We still need to develop our full potential."

Ronaldo played all 90 minutes as the 38-year-old men's international appearance record-holder won his 199th cap.

However, the forward was not able to add to his record 122 international goal. He scored a header midway through the first half but it was called off-side.

"Cristiano Ronaldo's commitment to the national team is exemplary," said Martinez.

"He is a unique player in world football, and he is very important in our dressing room."
