Mia Hamm And Mallory Pugh Star In Gatorade’s Women’s World Cup Ad

While we can doubt the historical accuracy of this Gatorade commercial — Mia Hamm played her final match for the USWNT in 2004, when Mallory Pugh was only six — we can’t doubt its quality, or its use of Dr. Seuss’ “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” 

As the second-youngest player on the USWNT World Cup roster, Pugh will be an inspiration to many this summer. The 21-year-old already has 53 caps and 16 goals to her name, and she’ll likely be the first player Jill Ellis turns to if the USWNT needs a spark in attack.

The USWNT Is Blowing Up Across The Country On Billboards And Murals

The USWNT is more than ready to compete and defend its World Cup title, so much so that they even made sure to mark their territory. Literally. 

First stop is the hometown of Rose Lavelle: Cincinnati, Ohio. Lavelle has been a crucial part of this World Cup cycle and has been a dynamic and impactful midfielder. Her craftiness and vision on the field helped the U.S. defeat both South Africa and New Zealand in its Send-Off Series matches. 

German National Team Puts Out Cheekily Defiant Ad To Promote Women’s World Cup

The USWNT isn’t the only France-bound team to put out an inspiring Women's World Cup ad this year.

For The Love Of Messi And Salah

Pepsi recently launched a new global marketing campaign to more than 100 countries. Its new "For The Love Of It" slogan reached both Argentina and Egypt's finest.

Lionel Messi and Mohamed Salah showed off why they are two of the world’s best target strikers. They took Pepsi’s challenge with ease as Messi double dipped by kicking the ball through the target, while also hitting a perfect bottle flip.Talk about raising the standards for bottle flipping. 

Lionel Messi Commercial Named Best Ad Of Year By YouTube

In a case of voters once again getting it all wrong, Lionel Messi finished fifth in the Ballon d’Or voting earlier this week. But Messi won another award this week that might actually be more valuable than a record sixth trophy for being the world’s best player. 

On Thursday, The YouTube Ad of the Year Awards (yeah, that’s a thing), honored Messi’s Gatorade commercial “Heart of a Lio” as the best ad of the year.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s New Underwear Ad Is Out And Yeah, Seems About Right

I'm not a physician, but I feel like I don’t need a medical doctorate to diagnose Cristiano Ronaldo with a rather serious allergy to shirts and clothing in general. In the most recent ad campaign to promote his CR7 Underwear, the Juventus man proved yet again that he and the rest of the world are really better off when he's stripped down to his skivvies.

Picking a team to follow based on that advertisement would not have ended well for you. We compiled a list on who to support based on which nation gave the most compelling argument in the advertisement, but it turns out none of them backed it up on the field.
