Tonight, in the much-awaited UEFA Champions League Final between favourites Manchester United and Russian-owned Chelsea, Ronaldo and Drogba will be wearing new boots designed by Nike from the range ‘Mercurial’. The new boot, called Nike Mercurial SL, shown below in the picture, has a pink Swoosh, and weighs just 180 grams.

It is highly responsive, flexible, but strong nevertheless. It delivers maximum performance for the football player that wears them, and has a competitive advantage over other football boots.
The players’ comments were:
“The new Mercurial SL defines the next level of football boots – it is like nothing I have ever seen before and I’m very excited to be one of the first players to wear this boot in the Champions League Final.” – Didier Drogba (Chelski)
“Speed and acceleration are essential to my game; one second can be the difference between winning or losing the Champions League Final. This Mercurial SL boot is designed to provide the next level of speed.” – Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United, Favourite for World’s Best Player of the Year)
