Nike have upped the tempo of their 'Risk Everything' Campaign with the launch of their latest video titled 'Wayne Rooney - Attempt The Unthinkable'.

'Park the bus' - a phase that's been used almost every weekend this season. Negative football or tactically effective, depends on who you ask, Jose Mourinho or the rest of the world. Either way it ain't pretty to watch. Nike have focused on this style of play in their latest 'Risk Everything' video where the Manchester United and England striker finds an alternative solution to breaking down teams who park the bus.

The short film follows the epic World Cup ad and features Rooney's goal against Brazil at the Maracana last year. Just as the England forward pulls the trigger a coach lands on the goal line but gets blown up (obviously) by Rooney's rocket of a shot. It feels all a bit FIFA crossed with Grand Theft Auto crossed with Demolition Derby if you know what we mean? No? Not sure we do either to be honest.

What do you think of the Nike 'Attempt the Unthinkable' video? Let us know. Drop us a line in the comments.
