A real farce in the picture of the decade.
The joint photo of Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, which managed to drive the networks crazy yesterday, continues to occupy the football and gossip sections of the world.
As you may remember, two of the greatest players in history teamed up for a joint campaign for the "Louis Vuitton" company when they appear to be playing chess against each other, but now it is said that it was not a historic advertising union between the two after each of the stars was photographed separately!

Just yesterday, two videos were uploaded on the "Louis Vuitton" Instagram and YouTube page, one with Ronaldo and one with Messi.
Both were tagged to the same videos, which actually revealed the behind the scenes and the fact that both were filmed separately and only then combined into a joint photo in Photoshop.
After the French fashion house realized the magnitude of the scandal, both videos were quickly removed from the network!
Yeah so they weren't actually in the same room.
Still goated ad fair play to Louis Vuitton 👏pic.twitter.com/8FkEO04y9A

According to estimates alone, "Louis Vuitton" spent between 15 and 20 million dollars just for the photograph that bears the title "Victory is a matter of thought", and apart from the replica sums that the two raked into their pockets just to sit down to play chess against each other, they came out Earned hundreds of thousands more followers - something that will of course pad their bank account.
