The annual tradition continues to thrive; Nike has released the official promotional vignette for this year’s World Cup. The commercial pays homage to previous classic ads, and features a high-profile guest appearance by Ronaldo. The goal of today’s video: help the Brazilian team’s morale, thus aiding a series-winning victory in their World Cup 2018 showdown against Russia.

“Our football is born in the streets, in the várzea, in the lawns. Our football inspires the world,” the clip explains. “This shirt has history.”

You can watch Nike’s official commercial for this year’s World Cup above. Brazil’s first World Cup 2018 match will be on Sunday, June 17.
