Isbae U’s Show Turns Heated as Footballer Victor Boniface Fires Back
Adebayo Ridwan Abidemi, known as Isbae U, a popular comedian and content creator, faced a challenging episode on his show ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’.
Victor Boniface, a Nigerian footballer, was featured as a guest on Isbae U’s show, which turned into a contentious encounter marked by verbal sparring. Isbae U, renowned for his YouTube podcast where he often poses provocative questions, elicited strong reactions online. The clash began when Isbae U humorously labeled Victor as the second-best ‘Victor’ player in Nigeria’s Super Eagles, teasing him about wearing a fake wristwatch. Isbae U also playfully suggested Victor looked older than his age and teased him about losing the Europa League to fellow player Ademola Lookman.
In response, Victor Boniface fired back with sharp retorts, playfully renaming Isbae U as ‘Nikky the Barbie’ and poking fun at his short beard. The 24-year-old footballer didn’t hold back, even commenting on Isbae U’s career and family, which left the comedian momentarily speechless and eventually led him to exit his own show prematurely. During the interview, Victor Boniface clarified that he is content with his current team, Bayer Leverkusen, and has no immediate plans to move to the Premier League.
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
