A video of streamer IShowSpeed has gone viral, showing him spitting on the ground as he left a stadium in Atlanta after being the target of racist attacks from the Argentine crowd during a World Cup match. The incident occurred after the game between Egypt and Argentina, where Speed was streaming live and a fan made monkey gestures at him. This was the second racist attack Speed faced during the tournament, following an earlier incident where a woman told him to "go cry at the zoo." The video, which shows Speed clearing his throat and spitting just before passing two Argentine fans, has divided opinions online. Some viewers criticized the streamer, while others argued he was simply clearing his throat and happened to pass by Argentine fans. Many commenters defended his actions, with one saying "He did too little" and another questioning the logic of equating spitting on the ground with spitting on an Argentine. The incident has sparked debate about racism and reactions to it in sports.
