adidas has lit a spark under the world of football today by launching their #ThereWillBeHaterscampaign; focussed around a provocative new video featuring global football stars such as Luis Suarez, Gareth Bale, James Rodriguez and Karim Benzema.
If you have "haters", then it's the ultimate compliment. The best players know that a great performance delivers "hate" from fans and opponents, particularly on social media, which then continues to fuel the confidence to deliver even greater performances. They thrive off it – and they make no apology in doing so.
The film, featuring title track "Battle Royal (Haters Instrumental VIP)" by Apashe, has been released to coincide with the launch of adidas' new football footwear range for 2015. The adidas adizero f50, Predator, Nitro charge and 11Pro all sit at the cutting edge of technology, ensuring you will deliver a "haters" performance when you step out onto the field.
The film, which kicks off with the provocative voice over of "They hate the way you walk. They hate the way you talk…", features the larger than life person as of 'Hero' Gareth Bale, 'Golden Boy' James Rodriguez, 'Target Man' Luis Suarez, and 'Hip Hop VIP' Karim Benzema. The video takes a whirlwind tour of the perceived lives of these players, focusing on their flash lifestyles, over exuberant goal celebrations, possessions and good looks.
