This time every four years, every football fan can hardly contain their excitement. The World Cup is underway and there are 3 games a day. Of course there are few teams already knocked but some of the big questions are still on people lips. Who will win it and who’ll be the top scorer? In a few weeks all will be revealed, but in the mean time it’s a good thing to talk about seeing as the Premier League and European seasons are all wrapped up.

Of course, all the players are concentrating on getting themselves in peak condition for the pinnacle competition in world football. But they will have to contemplate which boots to slip on when they are strutting their stuff on the world stage. Today at Intersport Elverys towers, will have be having a look at the Nike Mercurial Superfly 6 and the adidas X18.1 football boots, to outline the benefits of each.

Belgium and Chelsea star Eden Hazard is one of the stars wearing the Nike Mercurial Superfly 6 elite football boot at the World Cup. Hazard along with a host of other big name players including Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku have already fired Belgium into the last 16 and will be hoping to fire the Red Devils to World Cup glory for the first time. The Nike Superfly 6 boot itself has so many great features. The Flyknit upper of the football boot wraps underneath your foot for an all-enveloping, second-skin-like fit straight out of the box. The 2-part podular plate system utilizes a lightweight internal chassis that flexes for speed with every step. Part of the “Just Do It” Range. The Mercurial boots have been developed with the fastest players in the game in mind, featuring experimental and game-changing innovations. Pick up your pair today in-store or online at elverys.ie.

Brazil and Manchester City’s rising star Gabriel Jesus is showing off his amazing talent in the new adidas X 18.1 FG Football Boot in Russia. Jesus will be part of a 3 man attack including Neymar and Coutinho, which is likely to frighten the life out of any defense in Russia. Brazil are looking to lift the World Cup for a record 6^th time. The new adidas X18.1 will let you light up the pitch with electric pace and instant control. Non Stop Grip (NSG) is a thin layer of raised dots that are applied to the upper, making sure your control is closer than the rest.
