Superstars like Leo Messi are wondrous figures of stature, but few ever truly reach that state of fame or talent — or success. In adidas’ “Create Your Own Game”, the short film makes the point that you should be inspired by your heroes, but seek to take what makes them great and apply those things to your own make-up.
