VIDEO: ‘You Got This’ - USMNT star Gio Reyna joins Lionel Messi, Jude Bellingham & David Beckham in inspirational adidas film that addresses ‘the next big thing’, ‘weight of the nation’ & ‘making history’

The United States international, who has seen pressure lumped onto his shoulders from a young age, has just completed a frustrating loan spell in the Premier League at Nottingham Forest. He is hoping for better luck, and more game time, when heading into Copa America and Olympic Games events with his country.

Messi, meanwhile, continues to star for Inter Miami in MLS – where he is now working with Manchester United and England legend Beckham. A Three Lions talisman of the present, 20-year-old midfielder Bellingham, is preparing for Champions League final and Euro 2024 duty.

They all know about the pressure of performing under the brightest of spotlights, with adidas highlighting that fact in a video that sees narrator Beckham list the many challenges that elite performers such as Reyna, Messi and Bellingham face. He says: “Its only the weight of the nation. It’s only noise. It’s only expectations. It’s only opinions. It’s only his weak foot. It’s only making history… and repeating it. It’s only the next big thing. It’s only the beginning.”

German wonderkid Florian Wirtz, who has savoured Bundesliga title glory with Bayer Leverkusen this season, also figures in the promotional video alongside Barcelona and Spain midfielder Pedri and Paris Saint-Germain’s World Cup-winning winger Ousmane Dembele.
