With only 18 days to go until it all cracks off in Poland and Ukraine, China’s Euro 2012 television rights holders Now TV have rolled out a new anime-style advert to tantalise the nation – an advert which sees post-apocalyptic renderings of European landmarks such as the Colosseum, the Eiffel Tower and the Houses Of Parliament reduced to smouldering rubble, followed by a football match and a lovely song, followed by a sequence which sees all-out war break out over the previously mentioned European landmarks as soldiers, tanks and bombers further raze the continent to the ground – only to be defeated by the footballers and their powerful slide tackles THEN a rainbow lion descends from the sky and makes the world fall apart just before the winning goal gets lashed in…
Makes…sense?
Mucho thankos to @101greatgoals for rooting out a working link!
