Adidas: The Nitrocharge Power Pitch

Adidas Football staged a unique match in Brazil, where the energy of the game powers the pitch lights. The Power Pitch was created for The Engine player the archetypical footballer who is always first on the team sheet; the player who powers a team, running and tackling more, relentlessly and ferociously seeking chances from box-to-box over 90 minutes. The pitch takes the in-game action and energy from tackles, presses, passes, shots and sprints and uses it to light-up the ground and its surroundings. The Power Pitch is the only place where you can fully Nitrocharge your game.

A global team of engine players were scouted from across the world to travel to Brazil to take part in this once in a life time game. These players were chosen from scouting sessions by adidas professionals, such as, Patrick Vieira, Jamie Carragher and Daniele De Rossi. After being scouted by adidas football the six engine players were selected to travel to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to take part in the Power Pitch game. On the night they faced a team of Brazilian engines and this is the end result.
