Cristiano Ronaldo, also known as CR7, is a living legend and one of best the football players ever! With his many records, trophies, personal awards and impressive career, then it can easily be forgotten, where it all started. The Portuguese club Sporting CP, is the club where Cristiano had his professional debut in the beautiful game. In just one season, he managed to develop so drastically, that he from the U16s moved up through the ranks on the U17s, U18s to the B-squad, until he ended up on the first team, which played in the best Portuguese league, Primeira Liga. On the 7th of October 2002, at an age of only 17 years old, he debuted as a professionel and at the same time scored his first and second professionel career goal, against Moreirense. Ronaldo went on to play 25 official matches and scoring three times for Sporting CP, before the legendary friendly match against Manchester United, which would end up having a decisive influence on the rest of his career. On the 6th of August 2003, Sporting CP’s new stadium, Estadio Jose Alvalade, were inaugurated with its first ever match. It was a friendly match in the pre-season, between Sporting CP and Manchester United. The match ended 3-1 to Sporting CP, and the young Cristiano Ronaldo had delivered a spectacular performance against 'The Red Devils'. Rumor has it, that the Manchester United players were so impressed with abilities of the young Portuguese, that after the game they asked their manager; Sir Alex Ferguson, to sign him immediately. Nonetheless, the English giants signed him shortly after, which made him the first Portuguese player in the club's history - sending his career off towards a place in the history books. This is the 11th signature boot for Cristiano Ronaldo, and the third chapter in the story of his football journey, which began in the small home at the Portuguese island of Madeira. From being a young talent with big dreams, to now being one of football's biggest stars, ever! Mercurial is designed for the explosive player, that has a need for speed. It is for the player that shows unrivaled acceleration, speed and unpredictability - while letting his opponents taste the dust when being outrunned. • Chapter 3: Discovery - third part of CR7’s football journey • Signature boot for the Portuguese Real Madrid superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo • Flyknit upper - Weight only on 220 gram Redefined speed Mercurial Superfly V is the most advanced boot technology wise, ever produced by Nike. By combining science with design, Nike has managed to develop a boot where all components work together with one purpose: to allow the player to reach his full potential. The boots are lighter and stronger than ever before, backed by science and designed to work together with the foot. This is the science of speed, this is speed redefined! Flyknit upper combined with Speed Rib cables The boot has a Flyknit upper with a integrated Speed Rib technology, which is a special cable structure woven into the upper. The cables starts with being 1 mm in the back and 2,5 mm in the front foot. The purpose with this, is to create friction between the boot and the football, so you get an improved touch on the ball and a closer, more precise and natural touch when dribbling, passing or shooting in high speed. Meanwhile some of the Speed Rib cables are connected to the outsole and laces, which helps keeping your foot pressed down against the insole. This ensure an optimal lockdown, which is necessary in high pace and fast-paced quick turns, while also making the boot as responsive as possible. The light and strong Flyknit upper is made in one piece. It is extremely flexible and moves with your foot, so it feels like one with your feet. This gives a comfort and fit which is unmatched. The tongue is removed so you get a close touch on the ball and an improved control. The upper is furthermore coated with the NikeSkin and All Conditions Control (ACC) technology. The NikeSkin secures a light, breathable and tight fit, by combining a thin PU-layer with a performance mesh. The ACC-technology is a thin coating of the upper that secures a good touch in all kinds of weather. Dynamic Fit Collar gives the best possible fit The Dynamic Fit Collar is the part of the boot which continues above the ankles and looks similar to a sock. This extension of the football boot is one of the most significant changes and the sock.like desing adds to keeping your feet in place. It creates a feeling of the boot being an extension of your body and legs. Your attention towards your feet is heightened and the level of interaction with the football is significantly raised. Groundbreaking way of thinking is the foundation for a unique outsole A conventional way of thinking, when talking about outsoles for a pair of football boots, has been flat form. But Nike realised that the problem was, that people’s feet was anything else but flat. As a logical consequence of this, Nike started working on the development of a new outsole plate, which follows the foots anatomy. The result became a curved and light nylon outsole, which consists of a single layer chassis, that is 40% lighter, stronger and more responsive than the carbon sole on the Superfly IV. By having an anatomic outsole which follows the foot, it reduces the gap, which existed on the carbon sole, and offers a more natural fit. On the front foot the sole has a Split-Toe function, which increases the foot’s flexibility in the boots, so you get an improved grip on the pitch. Weight: 220 gram This is an AG boot specially made for artificial grass surfaces.
