The photo of the century?: Cristiano and Messi posed together for a campaign | Out of Soccer

One day before the start of Qatar 2022, the luxury brand ‘Louis Vuitton’ did what has never been done in the history of mankind by bringing together Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the same advertisement.

And it is that the firm, within the framework of the launch of its new collection of trunks, have united possibly the best players in the history of world football in the same photo.

With the Portuguese on the right and the Argentine on the left, the two dress very elegantly while the photograph captures how they play a game of chess in a trunk with paintings.

The image, which has been cataloged as “the photo of the century”, had a great impact in a matter of minutes both on the brand’s networks and on that of the footballers.

The image exceeded 20.4 million “likes” in Cristiano’s account, 16.9 million in Messi’s and 2 million in the “Louis Vuitton” account.

“In addition to having a long artisan tradition of building trunks for the most coveted sports trophies in the world, the house celebrates two of the most talented soccer players,” was the text of the publication.

This is not the first time that Louis Vuitton has brought together some of the best players in the world, since in 2010 the brand brought together Zinedine Zidane, Pelé and Diego Maradona, although the latter had to be added by Photoshop since he was late for the recording. .

It should be noted that the image captured by Annie Leibovitz will surely become one of the most interacted posts in history. The record is currently held by a photo of an egg that has 55 million ‘likes’.
