Brief Explanation

‘Every Team Needs the Spark’ features Lionel Messi as the spark and introduces Zinedine Zidane as an enigmatic storyteller in the shadows. Zidane has traveled to Buenos Aires to search out the story of Messi and to discover this legend’s mystical beginnings. In the style of the graphic novel, Lionel Messi represents the adidas F50i boot and ‘lightning quick, game changing’ player type.
