Okay, so as far as we can gather, Leo needs to grow his hair like Maradona for them to bond during Argentina’s World Cup action. Or, it’s an ode to perms. Or a warning not to get perms. Or a reminder that only extremely talented footy players are allowed to have perms.
Yeah, no idea. Our Spanish Kickette has deemed today an all day under the duvet situ. But enjoy the link until we can wake her up.

Update: Okay, here’s what this crazy-making ad is about. Argentinian fans took to Facebook to ask Messi to perm his hair so he could look like Maradona. The logic is such that Maradona’s great skills in ‘86 were down to his barnet. “The wind hovered over his hair and created a streamline, just like Formula 1 cars.”
Hmm. We liked not knowing better.
Thanks AG!
