The long-awaited Qatar World Cup is upon us. To that enthusiasm comes the world-class sports brand “Nike” with the question “Who is Cayman”? Mbappé in 2022 or Ronaldinho in 2006? The answer lies in Nike’s special announcement for the “Footballversy” World Cup. Nike’s ‘Footballverse’ is already trending among fans. Footballverse was viewed 4.3 million times by fans on YouTube alone in two days.
The story is in Switzerland
The story takes place in a laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. The story begins with two scientists arguing whether Mbappé from 2022 or Ronaldinho from 2006 is better. They are creating a “multiverse” to resolve the dispute: a chance for Mbappe in 2022 to face Ronaldinho in 2006! A platform to find out who Cayman is! Mbappé with the France shirt at the World Cup. Ronaldinho arrives with the Barcelona 2006 shirt. The match begins. Both players play in their natural style. As the game progresses, new players arrive…
The stars one by one
Brazilian legend Ronaldo, the real Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal, American footballer Alex Morgan, Dutchman Virgil van Dijk, Belgian Kevin De Bruyne, Englishman Phil Foden and former Dutchman Edgar Davids take to the field one by one. The game proceeds with a brisk pace. At some point, when the experiment is abandoned, the scientists come up with a new idea. How about taking players “from the future” into the multiverse? The answer came in the form of a “ball of fire”… Five figures appear, ready for anything… “You are standing”. It’s your moment. Nike shares the message that the future of football is with you, the stars of tomorrow, through “Footballversy”. The four and a half minute video was picked up by fans. Prior to that, Nike released commercials for the World Cup. ‘Brazil Team at the Airport’ in 1998, ‘Brazil Team in the Changing Room’ in 2006, ‘The Cage Tournament’ in 2002 and ‘Write the Future’ in 2010 are the world famous Nike World Cup commercials.
