Iro, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are currently recognized as the three strongest attacking players in world football, and the historical 'grievances' of Iello and Messi are clearer, from the World Youth Championships in their youth to the Olympic Games of the national Olympic team, and now to the quadrennial gluttonous feast World Cup, the teams led by the two entered the quarterfinals respectively, and a few days later it was a battle of dragons and tigers.

Even if the overall strength of the two teams is hugely different, it does not affect the fans' high attention to it.

So Telefónica, a co-sponsor of Iello and Messi, saw a rare opportunity to expand its reach......

Founded in 1924, Telefónica is a large multinational telecommunications company in Spain, it is one of the largest fixed-line and mobile telecommunications companies in the world, ranking 4th in terms of subscribers and 6th in total market value.

The so-called battle of rivals is a personal battle between Ayroh and Messi.

The next day, the day the last two 1/8 finals were played.

It is worth mentioning that in the two 1/8 finals last night, the Netherlands narrowly defeated Slovakia 2:1, and Brazil defeated Chile 3:0.

On this day, although most of the media focused on the two 1/8 finals that ended last night and the last two 1/8 finals that will be played, there are also a lot of media that will pay attention to the press conference held by Telefónica, and their two absolute superstars, Iello and Messi, will jointly shoot a very creative advertisement, so it will attract more and more fans' attention.

Especially after this plus V message was tweeted, the media paid more attention to the creative advertising that Telefónica was about to shoot, anyway, yesterday's game is over, and the remaining two games have not been played, so it is the same to pay attention later, it is not in the way.

Thereupon...... There is also no one in the second half of the World Cup.

However, in order not to affect the preparation of the two teams for the quarterfinals, the cooperative advertising agency of the Spanish film company was divided into two batches of shooting.

The first shot of the commercial is Messi editing a text message to the effect that I will definitely beat you in the next World Cup quarter-finals!

Of course, at the end of the text message is the Telefónica logo.

After the long-haired Messi finished editing, he sent a text message to Note AI-9, which is the note name of Iroh's mobile phone number.

Immediately afterwards, Iro, who was training on another piece of turf, heard the text message prompt on his mobile phone, so he kicked the football aside, took out his mobile phone and saw the 'challenge letter' sent by Messi, and Iroh in the camera sat on the turf, showed a charming smile, and replied to Messi's text message, to the effect: Haha, me too! I would prefer you only to score goals in the game!!

That's it...... Messi and Iroh texted back and forth to 'make an appointment'

Messi: My teammates are better, you're going to lose!

Iroh: Nonsense! Nonsense! Nonsense! My teammates are even better!!

Messi: So...... See you in four days!!

Finally, it's Ello's reply text: Okay, I can't wait!!

The entire ad ends with Telefónica's huge logo and mission......

When the commercial was first published on the social networking site Twitter, two of the three most popular football players in the world immediately attracted the attention of the world.

In addition to China's defeat of the United States to advance to the quarterfinals, the South Korean team has been eliminated by Uruguay, and the next World Cup 1/8 finals between Japan and Paraguay have attracted the attention of the majority of Asian media, and the Japanese team head coach Takeshi Okada expressed at the press conference before the game that the Chinese team can beat the United States, and they Japan can also beat Paraguay's heroic feat.

Outcome...... The score of 0:0 was throughout the whole game, but unfortunately it was lost 5:3 in the penalty shootout.

The Iberian Peninsula derby in the evening was the most interesting, the 1/8 final at the Green Point Stadium in Cape Town Aelo also brought Li Ai to watch the game, he has a lot of friends in the Spanish team, the same is true in Portugal, Cristiano Ronaldo is a rival and a friend, Carvalho is a club teammate and friend......

The game in which both sides have friends happened to be played at the venue of the World Cup quarterfinals between China and Argentina, so it is natural to come to the scene to watch.

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in this game can be said to be his best game in the World Cup, but the team as a whole is different from the championship favorite Spain, and he had to swallow the bitter fruit of the 1:2 loss, and after the game, he left tears of regret.

As one of the three stars in today's football, it feels like to be locked out of the quarterfinals because of the overall strength of the team...... Iroh can empathize.

Looking at the sad Cristiano Ronaldo, Iroh seemed to see himself three days later......

Perhaps, after being defeated by the powerful Argentina as a whole, it will be the same as Cristiano Ronaldo, right?

After the last two World Cup 1/8 finals, the World Cup finally ushered in a rare two-day break.

Two days later, the first quarter-finals will be played in Germany vs Uruguay and Spain vs Paraguay, and China vs Argentina and Netherlands vs Brazil will be played three days later.

Among them, the most watched quarter-finals are bound to be the match between the Netherlands and Brazil, but the quarter-finals between China and Argentina should not be underestimated, and it has become the most watched quarter-final after the Netherlands vs Brazil, driven by the advertising of Telefónica.

In the two days of the World Cup break, the media following the World Cup focused on the eight teams, while the eight teams that qualified were desperately preparing.

After all, it is a heavy competition related to advancing to the semi-finals, and no one dares to take it lightly, and only putting their minds on preparation is king.

Neither Iroh nor Messi had any contact after filming the Telefónica commercial, and they were all focused on how to beat their opponents.

Argentina coach Maradona looks to be big-mouthed, and the Argentina he led in the World Cup South American qualifiers still defeated Uruguay in the final round to become the fourth in the group and qualify for the World Cup.

However, after the start of the main event, Argentina quickly found their form under his command, and the third consecutive group win and the Netherlands became the two best teams in the group stage of this World Cup.

In the 1/8 finals, it beat Mexico, and in the next 1/4 finals, it faced the weakest Chinese team, which means that Argentina entered the semifinals, whether it was against the Netherlands or Brazil, there was a possibility of winning, and all the Argentine media believed that Maradona, the king of the ball, would lead this team to win the World Cup as the head coach......

The head coach of the Chinese team, Gao Hongbo, put his posture very low, he said that the Chinese team's entry into the quarterfinals of the World Cup is just a matter of luck, Argentina is a world-class team, with the strength to win the World Cup, if nothing else, it will definitely be Argentina who advances to the semifinals......

When the Argentine media heard Gao Hongbo praise Argentina in such a high-profile manner, they didn't mention how happy they were, but comforted Gao Hongbo, saying that it was not easy for the Chinese team to reach the quarterfinals, and maybe luck would be able to beat Argentina and enter the semifinals......

The Chinese media did not have any dissatisfaction with Gao Hongbo's remarks, even though the Chinese team has a world-class star like Ailo, but after all, the gap in strength between each other is very obvious, the 1990 opening game Cameroon defeated Argentina and the 2002 World Cup opening game Senegal defeated France but there is a certain amount of chance, plus the first game of the World Cup will always be in poor shape, and as the World Cup game goes farther and farther, the game will naturally get better and better, The chances of an upset are getting lower and lower......

However, although the overall strength gap between China and Argentina is very large, it has not affected the confidence of Chinese fans in this game.

Compared to the Chinese tourists who came to South Africa in the first four matches of the Chinese team, the number of arrivals before the quarter-finals of the World Cup between China and Argentina was higher......

It's just that fans who can have tickets to enter the stadium at that time may not be able to say, after all, there is no such thing as a ticket.

In the last two days of the Chinese team's preparations, more than 100,000 Chinese came to South Africa, and it is estimated that these numbers would have at least tripled if it were not for visa reasons.

Time flies, in the blink of an eye, it came to July 2nd, the first World Cup 1/4 final at Port Elizabeth Stadium was Germany VS Uruguay, Eillo Club teammate Suarez once again showed Xiàn excellent, but helplessly the overall table of the German team Xiàn was excellent, and finally the German team won 4:1 against Uruguay.

The super form that came out of the table xiàn is completely like the sluggish table in the group stage.

It is worth mentioning that Klose scored a goal in this game, equaling the fourteen-goal World Cup goal of German legend Gerd Müller, and just one short of Ronaldo's fifteen goals!

Spain and Paraguay were followed by a narrow 1-0 win over Paraguay thanks to David Villa's striker, who jumped to second place in the scorers list with five goals.

The winners of the two quarter-finals will also produce the last team to reach the finals of this World Cup: Germany vs Spain!

With the two South American teams out of the tournament one after another, the other two South American teams, Argentina and Brazil, who will play the quarter-finals the next day, are in the spotlight.

Of course, in the perception of all the media, it is only a matter of time before Argentina advances to the semi-finals, and Brazil will have to overcome the Dutch hurdle if they want to reach the semi-finals.

Naturally, the mainstream European media is hopeful for the Netherlands, but they want to repeat the episode of the last World Cup final: the European derby!

In this context, the 'battle of rivals' between the Chinese team and Argentina is quietly coming......

PS: Tonight at half past seven in the national football World Cup qualifiers.
