Video: Lionel Messi and Roger Federer face off against each other!

Lionel Messi and Roger Federer may belong to completely different universes, but they have one thing in common: they are both brand ambassadors for Gillette. And the ad makers up at Gillette have pulled off the ultimate coup by getting Messi and Federer together for their latest commercial.

The ad ostensibly portrays the widespread global reach of Gillette, but what makes it interesting is the variety of garbs that Messi and Federer put on as the storyline progresses. We get to see Federer dressed as a sumo wrestler and a rugby player, while Messi portrays a cricketer and a tennis player! There is a final showdown on the football field, with Messi cutting through the midfield to race towards the goal, where Federer holds guard as the goalkeeper. We don’t want to give away spoilers, so we won’t reveal who comes out on top!
