The adidas Football revolution rolled into Berlin in epic fashion followed by the most influential names on the Berlin freestyle scene, the hottest local DJs and a couple of World Cup winners thrown in for good measure.
On the eve of the Champions League Final in the heart of the city adidas hosted a night of electric playground football under a shower of strobe lights and huge beats. The forecast in the German capital as adidas strolled into town with a new found swagger? Sunny with a strong chance of outrageous tekkerz. In an exhibition of small-sided football each player laced up in the X or Ace Boost in the ultimate battle of chaos vs control.
The teams of two went head-to-head at 'The Base' scoring points for goals, skills and general all round flair. In amongst the full throttle competition saw a team of Zinedine, Luca & Enzo Zidane take on the Premier League duo of Mesut Özil and Ander Herrera.
The X and ACE launch is the boldest move in the German brand's long and distinguished footballing history and what better platform to throw it down than in a Champions League final in their own back yard. Zidane, showboating, the latest product and a few cold beers, adidas know how to get the party started. Roll on tomorrow...
The adidas X and ACE collections are available now from selected online stockists including Pro-Direct Soccer.
