Nike’s full-length Euro 2016 ad is here and it’s pretty f*cking epic

Ready for the Euros yet?

With just over 24 hours to go until the start of Euro 2016, we’ve finally been given a chance to drink in Nike Football’s pre-tournament advert.

After giving us a glimpse of what was to come with a one-minute teaser, the full six-minute version of ‘The Switch’ has landed.

It stars Cristiano Ronaldo and has a body-swap theme involving the Portugal star and an English ball-boy, which ends with the pair of them facing off on the pitch.

As well as Ronaldo, who geared up for the tournament in the best possible way with two goals in Portugal’s 7-0 victory over Estonia, there are cameos from a total of 16 other athletes.

Many of them are England players, with Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling both featuring, while there is also a brief glimpse of France’s Anthony Martial.

We don’t want to give away much more than that, though, and you can see the rest for yourself here.

Euro 2016 gets underway tomorrow with France taking on Romania at the Stade de France.

England begin their tournament the following day, while Portugal will have to wait until Tuesday before kicking off their Group F campaign against Iceland in Saint-Etienne.
