Neymar (Brazil) Nike Hypervenom

After a monumental unveiling in Rio, the new Nike Hypervenom finally hit the turf this weekend. Unless you've been living in a cave for the last 2 weeks you'll know that Nike have laced up Neymar as their lead asset for the new silo dubbed 'A new breed of attack' and the Barca bound forward showed glimpses of what he's capable of during Brazil's 2-2 draw with England at the Maracana. The Hypervenom certainly demands a strong on-pitch presence and it will interesting to see if Neymar can tear up La Liga wearing them next season.

Zinedine Zidane (Real Madrid Legends) adidas Nitrocharge 1.0

Zizou lined up for the Real Madrid Legends at Old Trafford to take on a team of Manchester United Legends and Quinton Fortune. A predator wearer in his day, Zidane was laced up in the new Nitrocharge. 'Designed for the box to box midfielder' adidas' campaign for the Nitrocharge is what Zidane was all about. For the record the Madrid Legends won 2-1 with Fernando Morientes and Ruben de la Red scoring either side of a Ruud Van Nistlerooy goal for United.

Keisuke Honda (CSKA Moscow) Mizuno Wave Ignitus 3

After wearing a white-out version in training recently, Keisuke Honda gave a debut to the new Mizuno Wave Ignitus 3 colourway at the weekend as CSKA Moscow completed the double by beating Anzhi Makhacachadothemacarenahakala on penalties to lift the Russian Cup. The new generation Ignitus has been launched in two colourways with a brighter Yellow/Blue/Red version accompanying Honda's Silver/Orange combo.

Wayne Rooney (England) Nike Hypervenom

All eyes were on Neymar ahead of the Hypervenom's on pitch debut but it was an out of form Wayne Rooney who notched to silence a few critics. Cutting in from the right Rooney bent one into Cesar's top corner from outside the box (textbook R1 + cirlce goal for you FIFA fans) to give England an undeserved and brief lead. It was the first chance for fans to see the new England away kit in action too and it's fair to say it looks class on pitch.

Cesc Fabregas (Barcelona) PUMA PowerCat 1.12

Barcelona capped off an incredible La Liga campaign by hammering Malaga 4-1 to finish the season on 100 points. Cesc Fabregas was on the scoresheet wearing his new PUMA PowerCat 1.2 colourway. Clearly not a fan of the PowerCat soleplate Cesc has continued his trend of sticking a King soleplate on them.

Jeremy Toulalan (Malaga) adidas Copa Mundial

Little bit shocked to find out Toulalan is still in his twenties, just. Could have sworn he was knocking on late thirties, especially with the silver fox look he's got going on. The Malaga midfielder was keeping it old school against Barca with a pair of Copa Mundials, which he's customised with a mixed sole plate. You can't go wrong with a pair of Copas, everyone's got a bashed up pair in their bag somewhere, even if they're held together with tape, you just can't throw them away.

Heather O'Reilly (USA) adidas f50 adizero Custom

Doing our standard weekly photo search for Alex Morgan (some decent beach pics of her holiday to Hawaii on google images if you're interested) we stumbled across USWNT midfielder Heather O'Reilly wearing a pretty slick pair of custom miadidas f50s. Obviously an impatient fan of black speed boots, O'Reilly could have waited a couple more weeks for the new Black/White/Infrared paint job to land.

Clint Dempsey (USA) Nike Hypervenom

Clint Dempsey continued his knack of becoming the first player to score in new Nike boots, he's already given the Superfly 1 2 a goalscoring start and the American added the Hypervenom to his list after bagging a brace against a weakened Germany team in an epic 4-3 win for the USA.

Christian Benitez (Ecuador) adidas Predator LZ Custom

Ecuadorian powerhouse Christian Benitez has logged on to miadidas to give his boots a bit of patriotic flavour by creating an all yellow Pred LZ to match his national team kit. The mis-firing ex-Birmingham striker is now plying his trade at Club America in Mexico and featured for Ecuador in their 4-2 defeat to Germany.
