Videos from the stadium showed the streamer appearing frozen in disbelief before eventually leaving his seat.His misery did not end there.After heading to a nearby Walmart to clear his head, he reportedly found shelves lined with Messi shirts waiting for him.Thankfully for the YouTube star, Ronaldo finally gave him something much better to remember.
