The ad shows scientists working on a machine to bring players from the past to compete against the game’s current stars that will be at the World Cup in Qatar including Kevin De Bruyne, Virgil van Dijk and Phil Foden, along with past and present versions of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Meanwhile, Alex Morgan, England women’s captain Leah Williamson, Australian star Sam Kerr, and retired USWNT hero Carli Lloyd were also in the ad.
The ad features cameos from Netherlands icon Edgar Davids and by using special effects, different versions of Brazilian legend Ronaldo.
In the end, the laboratory opens up Pandora’s box of possibilities, filled with tons of Easter eggs for the casual and avid soccer fan.
