<p>Nike dropped its World Cup ad for the <a href="https:\/\/worldsoccertalk.com/category/world-cup-2022/">2022 World Cup</a>, and it is a treat for soccer fans regardless of age. There are modern day stars such as Kylian Mbappé, Kevin de Bruyne, Virgil van Dijk and Cristiano Ronaldo. There are also stars of decades ago, such as Ronaldo, Edgar Davids, Ronaldinho and a younger Cristiano Ronaldo.</p>



<p>The commercial seeks to end the longstanding debate over who is the greatest soccer player, Nike athletes only. Scientists in Geneva beam in players from across time. At first, it is just two masters of skill. <a href="https:\/\/worldsoccertalk.com/2022/06/01/kylian-mbappe-road-to-being-the-greatest-of-all-time/">Kylian Mbappé</a>, who won the World Cup with France, and Ronaldinho, who won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil. The two have a kickabout before other scientists beam in their favorite stars over the years. </p>



<p>For instance, there is an appearance from the Brazilian Ronaldo of 1998, who dominated before that infamous World Cup Final against France. Then, four years later, and with a fresh haircut, that same Ronaldo found glory. The same player, but from different time periods. This would not be the only player to have that treatment.</p>



<p>Cristiano Ronaldo is a modern day star, but he also has a cameo as his younger self, the one that played a role in the 2004 European Championship in Portugal.</p>



<p>Other players playing a role throughout the Nike World Cup ad include women’s stars Alex Morgan, Carli Lloyd, Sam Kerr and Leah Williamson.</p>

<p>At the end, the advertisement closes with silhouettes of players, signaling the next generation of soccer stars.</p>



<h2>Another top notch Nike World Cup ad</h2>



<p>Nike has a history of producing an elite World Cup ad. In 2014, the animated “<a href="https:\/\/www.youtube.com/watch?v=KriBQVhsgZk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Risk Everything</a>” advertisement had players like Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, David Luiz and Zlatan Ibrahimovic battle soccer robots that mimicked the real players. Four years before then, Nike’s “Write the Future” called upon Didier Drogba, Wayne Rooney, Cristiano and a number of other World Cup stars. They show the potential of what can be with World Cup glory or, in some cases, defeat.</p>



<p>The 2022 World Cup ad calls back to those commercials that bring in the biggest names in the Nike arsenal. Ronaldo appears, as he always does, but so do the biggest names of years prior. </p>



<p>It is also a nice touch to play on the multiverse that appears in both the Marvel Avengers world, as well as the Metaverse, an online living platform in virtual reality. The ad ties the past brilliance with the modern day, and even extends it into the future. </p>

<p>PSG produced some dominating teams over the last decade. In fact, they managed to win the French Ligue 1 title in seven of the last nine seasons.</p>
<p>However, this year’s team is perhaps the most exciting squad at the Parc des Princes ever. For one, a handful of <a href="https://www.transfermarkt.us/fc-paris-saint-germain/transfers/verein/583" target="_blank" rel="noopener">already-elite players arrived</a>. Young stars Gianluigi Donnarumma and Achraf Hakimi arrived. Also, a veteran presence in Sergio Ramos and Georginio Wijnaldum bring Champions-League-winning pedigree to the club. Still, the prized-acquisition is arguably the greatest player to step on a field, Lionel Messi.</p>
<p>Adding Messi means that this PSG team will be one of the most-watched clubs around the soccer world. With a front three of Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe, <em>Les Rouge et Bleu</em> essentially have a fantasy team in attack. So how can we watch the trio live in action here stateside? Let’s take a look.</p>
<h3>How to watch PSG throughout the season</h3>
<h5>Ligue Un</h5>
<p>BeIN SPORTS currently owns the rights to broadcast Ligue 1 games in the United States through the end of the 2023/24 season. On a typical weekend during the Ligue 1 season, every PSG game is shown on beIN SPORTS (or beIN SPORTS Connect). For fans of other French clubs, matches are also available via beIN SPORTS, or on one of their sister channels such as beIN SPORTS Connect or beIN SPORTS XTRA. The network also has a Spanish-language channel that broadcasts games called beIN Sports en Español.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>READ MORE</strong></em><em>: How to watch Ligue Un on U.S. TV.</em></p>
<p>Some of PSG’s domestic cup matches, Coupe de France, can also be watched on beIN SPORTS.</p>
<p>BeIN SPORTS may not be an American sports channel giant when it comes to name recognition. Yet, they do an excellent job with their Ligue 1 coverage. The beIN SPORTS networks can be accessed on streaming services such as <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/soccer/?irad=356358&amp;irmp=330866" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fuboTV</a>, <a href="https://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3301630-12685078?sid=homepage">Sling</a>, <a href="http://vidgo.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=1&amp;aff_id=1004">Vidgo</a>, and <a href="https://fanatiz.jbbfvx.net/k3E2d">Fanatiz</a>.</p>

<h5>UEFA Champions League</h5>
<p>Along with their domestic matches, PSG also play in the UEFA Champions League. This competition will allow soccer fans to watch Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe line up together against the best clubs in all of Europe.</p>
<p>This season, PSG have been drawn in group A, alongside Manchester City, RB Leipzig, and Club Brugge.</p>
<p>All UEFA Champions League matches are available in the United States through <a href="https://paramountplus.qflm.net/c/330866/1007330/3065" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paramount+</a>. The streaming service is currently $4.99 per month, or $50 annually, and offers a 7-day free trial.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>READ MORE:&nbsp;</strong></em><em>Complete Champions League TV schedule and streaming links.</em></p>
<p>PSG begin their 2021/22 Champions League campaign against Club Brugge on September 15th.</p>
<p>No matter the competition, PSG games will certainly be a spectacle this season. Three superstars not only in the same team, but lining up together in an attacking front three is truly special.</p>
<p>Also, Mbappe is reportedly eyeing a move away to Real Madrid next summer. Essentially, the only chance to see this trio grace the pitch could be this season.</p>
