Players Profile, Volume 1 - A Family Affair

More than 99% of football matches are played by everyday ballers outside big arenas.

On this new series, we will highlight those who play in local leagues and pickup games, in grassroots teams and made up squads, as we want to share their stories on why they love the beautiful game.

On this episode, we would like you to meet Mike and Orlando, two UNOZERO players whose connection with the beautiful game is a family affair.

- Why UNOZERO: The full leather feel on the ball, and the comfort overall when coaching. I like showcasing a great product that is new to the game and contribute by showing the different corners of the world that Unozero has reached, bringing validity to the product and brand. I advise any player looking for a new pair of cleats to give the Unozero boots a chance, get away from the usual boots that everyone else wears.

For that, I am externally grateful and I hope to continue to enjoy the game in one form or another until the end. To me soccer explains the world.
