MCV Staff 24th August 2011 Business News

EA’s annual all-star FIFA ad has become somewhat of a tradition, and this Sunday the UK public will get their first look at this year’s version.

Running under the tag line FIFA 12 – Love Football, Play Football”, the ad will debut during the Manchester United and Arsenal match this weekend on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports 1 HD.

The match kicks off at 16:00 on Sunday August 28th, with the second half-time ad break (in which EA will debut the short) running at around 17:00.

Stars of the video include Wayne Rooney, Gerard Pique, Kaka and Karim Benzema.

Those who miss the match will be able to view the ad after the match on EA Sports Football’s YouTube channel.
