Mohamed Salah and Vivianne Miedema have joined both Rick and Morty to promote the Adidas X SPEEDPORTAL soccer cleats, a special edition that is "designed to unlock speed in all dimensions."

In the 90-second short, we get to see the traditional way that creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland introduce their paid partnerships with commercial companies, which is a cold opening of Rick waking up Morty with some crazy story, and Morty is unbeknownst to anything that carries on without any details.

This time the next scene there are both soccer stars in a vessel referred to as vats where it seems that they are injecting the cleats with their power and stardom.

Later in the clip, Morty goes and plays interdimensional soccer and wins it all

The cleats are available through the Adidas website, they come in a great portal-fluid-green resembling the color of portals in the animated series, they have no virgin polyester and it has been done with mostly recycled materials. The boot is completely laceless and they are very lightweight to have more upper support, flexibility, and great comfort to play like the pros.

Is it soccer? Yeah, yeah yeah! Depending on where the ad is airing

Senior Product Manager at Adidas, Franziska Aurnhammer, was excited to speak about how they came up with the boot "With X SPEEDPORTAL we listened to what some of the fastest players on the planet wanted from their boots. It was clear that the mental element of speed was just as important as the physical, which is why it was so important to create a boot that notonly supports explosive movement, but also allows players to enter a flow state where movement is fast and autonomous. The result is a boot that unlocks multidimensional speed for the fastest players on the planet."
