30,000 feet above sea level, cruising over the clouds, sitting cozily in an Emirates A380 and hopping for autographs for two of the greatest football players of all time. Have you ever imagined this in your dreams?
The leading luxury airline Emirates, partner of the FIFA World Cup since 2006 have brought Real Madrid’s phenomenon Cristiano Ronaldo and Brazilian Legend Pelé (both global ambassadors for the brand) together in their latest advertising campaign leading to the greatest of football stages in June for the impending World Cup in Brazil.
As Ronaldo exudes his trademark grin, browsing a magazine column of himself, the Portuguese is at the heart of shell shocked adulation from fellow passengers who can hardly believe their eyes. Adding to the irresistible stardom is Brazilian Legend Pelé, who seems to be in awe of the exquisite bar on board.
The 73 year old, winner of three World Cups and considered by many to be the greatest ever to have graced the game alongside Argentina’s Diego Maradona, is in great spirits and totally assured of his place in footballing history.
The World Cup no doubt is the true test of greatness of any player but with the likes of Messi and Ronaldo failing to raise the bar on the grandest of stages, football fanatics all over the globe wait in bated breath to witness if either of the two can grab the headlines with their ability of getting past defenders and scoring goals at will at Brazil 2014.
As an awestruck passenger asks Pelé to take a snap of Ronaldo and himself, Emirates asks a witty question for our brain cells.
If records are well and truly rewritten in Brazil, who would you vote for? The unforgettable past or the irresistible future? Pelé or Ronaldo? Watch the Emirates video and tell us who you think is better of these two All Time Greats. Why not see what people are saying on Twitter in the #AllTimeGreats debate.
