The icon debuts with new commercial and limited edition Lay’s packaging – alongside former teammate Thierry Henry on the “No Lay’s, No Game” platform to celebrate the brand’s UEFA Champions League partnership and remind fans that Football without lay’s is unthinkable

Lay’s makes football watching better, but imagine watching it with your friends and seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi! The four-time UEFA Champions League winner and FIFA World Cup 2022 winner takes the brand’s ‘No Lay’s, No Game’ platform to the next level – he stars in a new fun and exciting commercial titled ‘Messi Visits ‘ and appears on Edition Lay’s Limited chip pack to commemorate the ‘No Lay’s, No Game’ movement to celebrate the UEFA Champions League.

The limited edition bags showcase the dynamic energy that athletes bring to the beautiful game. They will be available in the United States, South Africa, Poland and other nations throughout the UEFA Champions League tournament through June 2023.

The TV commercial “Messi Visits” with Messi in the main role can be viewed now!

In the spot, Messi is the unexpected guest at a UEFA Champions League party when he shows up unannounced, but the celebration turns to concern when the sporting legend asks, “Where’s the lay’s?” Look at how supporters and a furry friend respond to the legend’s quest for his favorite salty snack.

Emotions are humorously amplified by a hilarious record of original music, aptly titled “No Lay’s, No Game” – a parody of Eric Howard Carmen’s power ballad “All By Myself.”

“When you are well prepared, you have more chances to do your best. The same goes for all fans who enjoy watching football, meeting their friends and sharing Lay’s. The new commercial from Lay’s conveys this with humor. A game day is never complete without Lay’s! No lay’s, no game,” said Lionel Messi.

Commenting on the ‘No Lay’s No Game’ platform with the brand new ‘Messi Visits’ content and limited edition packaging, PepsiCo’s Vice President of Marketing, Global Food Brands Ciara Dilley added: ‘It’s unthinkable to watch football without Lay’s and it’s unthinkable to leave Messi out of the ‘greatest of all time’ conversation. That’s why Lionel was the perfect partner for the No Lay’s No Game platform and Lay’s has been in his team for many years. He is an icon of the sport and with Messi’s help, the ‘No Lay’s No Game’ movement will unite fans through the simple act of sharing lay’s.”

“Messi Visits” is the latest stop on the brand’s “No Lay’s, No Game” journey this football season. The exciting platform honors almost a decade of partnership between the world’s most popular chip brand and the UEFA Champions League.
