Calling all soccer fans! Get ready to be entertained by Pepsi’s latest global advertising campaign, ‘Where There’s A Ball There’s A Way.’ The spotlight is on Manchester City’s star, Jack Grealish, who recently signed a “seven-figure deal” with the beverage giant.

 

This high-energy commercial isn’t just about showcasing Grealish’s impressive skills, though. Pepsi goes all out, bringing together a dream team of soccer players to highlight the joy and creativity that embodies the beautiful game.

 

 

Joining Grealish in this campaign are Tottenham Hotspur's Son Heung-Min, Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr., and England Women's national team captain Leah Williamson. Together, they take their talents to the streets of London, with the iconic Wembley Stadium serving as a backdrop – the very stadium gearing up to host the prestigious UEFA Champions League final on June 1st.

 

Challenging local Londoners to impromptu games of 'Keepy-Uppy' – a test of footwork where the team that allows the ball to hit the ground first has to buy Pepsi Max for everyone – they showcase a simple idea: you don't need a fancy stadium or professional equipment to enjoy football, just a ball and some passion.

 

But there’s more! The campaign also features a surprise cameo from none other than former player turned Hollywood star, Vinnie Jones.

 

This campaign adds another chapter to Pepsi’s long history of memorable football commercials. Remember the epic Western showdown with David Beckham or the recent ads with Lionel Messi and Liverpool’s very own Mo Salah? Pepsi consistently captures the spirit of the sport, and ‘Where There’s A Ball There’s A Way’ is no exception.

 

So, what’s your take? Is this another winner for Pepsi?
