The reveal phase presents evidence that points to the secret source of this newfound football fervor. In a dramatic courtroom scene someone is being accused of having given fans and PUMA sponsored athletes an advantage.

Now, he must answer to a fictional governing body of football, the Global International Football Organization (GIFO).

In the closing moments of the TV spot, Pelé finally speaks and delivers a special message to the football world.
