Nike Football Commercial - GOOD v EVIL (1996) Match in Hell

Details

Description

The one that started it all.
In 1996, Nike produced a brand driven advert the likes of which had never been seen before in the football world. Yes, it looks dated now but the fact remains: without Good v Evil, there would be no Airport, no Cage, no Mission.
Nike's heroic players take on a team of demons from hell. As the Devil summons a pitch made of hellfire and his demon spawn team, we are introduced to our heroes:
Alongside bona-fide superstars such as Ronaldo, Romario, Paolo Maldini, Rui Costa, Luis Figo, Patrick Kluivert, Edgar Davids, Ian Wright, is Mexican legend Jorge Campos and...Tomas Brolin.
The Swede had finished third in the World Cup two years previous, but in 1996 was in the midst of his ill-fated spell at Leeds United. As you can imagine, this isn't as slick as The Cage or The Mission, with it quickly cut together to show our players showcasing their talents.
The star of the show was Eric Cantona, who ultimately conquers the demon squad with a spectacular shot exploding through the chest of the opposition keeper.
Enjoy!
