CORPORATE WORLD CUP - QUARTER-FINALS 1/2

What a night at SECTA.
Knockout football does not disappoint 🤯

Comebacks, creativity and even more collar-raised Cantona flicks.
We apologise for nothing.

The highlights 👇

VCCP 15-11 Ogilvy UK

The bookies at odds with this one 🤔

Ogilvy UK, reborn into a Secta heavyweight following a successful cup and league campaign.

VCCP on the other hand, former UNBEATEN league champions and looking to bounce back to popping bottles after a disappointing season in the league. 🍾

Bad news for Ogilvy.
Stride, the mastermind behind Ogilvy’s recent success, ruled out through injury 🩼

We warned Ogilvy about this man.
And they still couldn’t stop him.
The bagman, O'Neill, keeps on cashing those cheques 💰

But tonight it wasn’t just him. VCCP were all at it!

The new addition of Humphries alongside the workhorses of Bossman & Chaplin covering every blade of plastic grass available.
This provided the platform for Mallins & Wyver to play ball. And play ball they did.

This VCCP side is looking back to their best as they cruised to victory.

You didn’t see it from the start.

Wieden + Kennedy 14-8 Saatchi & Saatchi

Saatchi & Saatchi were delighted to be into the knockouts following a miracle performance against VMLY&R.

To many, this game was a foregone conclusion.
Maybe even to Wiedens.

Saatchi were up for it and caused W+K serious problems, sticking close to the Advertising Cup champions throughout.

The game had an air of uncertainty as Saatchi threatened another upset 🤯

Until the man of the hour.
Man like Alex D. grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck.
It was his game.
And he wasn't prepared to let his team fault at this stage.

20-20 vision.
💯 execution

It was a lacklustre performance from Wieden + Kennedy but enough to get through.
It’s knockout football.
All you need to do is win.

Whilst Ollie will be delighted with the result he’ll be doing everything possible to get the players back to their best next week.

Play like that against VCCP and they'll take you to the cleaners 🧹
