Everything that involves football already comes in a simpler way.
Football is a big part of male culture in Portgual. Who’s playing, who’s injured, who’s sent off…these are observed with passion. But during a match week of Liga NOS, the professional football league, all teams went onto the field with only nine players.

The activation was created for the Portuguese League Against Cancer in partnership with Liga de Portugal, the Football Foundation.
