Twenty years ago, Ronaldo scored the first ever goal in a pair of Nike Mercurial boots. Today, the series of boots from Nike is arguably the most iconic in football.
At an event at Printworks in London with The18 on hand, Nike released its newest set of Mercurial boots just ahead of the World Cup. Prior to the event, a plethora of Nike athletes took to social media to post this message:
