    I celebrate my return to these forum boards after a very lengthy absence (spotty visits every now and then to promote my WNT) ahead of THE penultimate women's football event by sharing this spectacular video advertisement that has been very well received around the world! :inlove:

    I think the Twitter video alone has reached ~13 million views already and thousands of retweets too while on Facebook there are variants uploaded by different groups being shared everywhere. Thousands of reactionary tweets/posts/shares have been praising it while several articles have been waxing poetic about it.

    Makena Cook, the girl in the video is now a star that we all gladly get to experience and share with all the wonderful things that women's football can bring.

    FEATURING:
    0:08 Lieke Martens (Netherlands)
    0:12 Daniëlle van de Donk (Netherlands)
    0:37 Asisat Oshoala (Nigeria)
    0:53 Grace Geyoro (France)
    0:54 Marie-Antoinette Katoto (France)
    0:55 Amandine Henry (France)
    1:01 Fran Kirby (England)
    1:11 Sara Däbritz (Germany)
    1:12 Ji So-yun (South Korea)
    1:15 Andressa Alves (Brazil)
    1:33 Wang Shuang (China)
    1:40 Alex Scott (former England)
    1:56 Crystal Dunn (USA)
    2:04 Sam Kerr (Australia)

    With some cameos by men's players too like Neymar, Philippe Coutinho and Gerard Piqué.

    Thanks: the video had been posted somewhere on these boards, but not with the extensive additional info you provided. :thumbsup:

    Do you know if this young Makena Cook actually plays soccer? Where is she from?
