The Events

After the great success of the first edition of the ‘Match of Friendship‘, in March 2018, on the occasion of Baselworld 2018, Reset collaborated again with Hublot with the creation of the ‘Match of Friendship 2’, an event in which some of the greatest football legends competed in a 5-a-side field. In this setting, Hublot presented its ‘Big Bang Referee 2018’, a watch totally inspired by football and dedicated to the 2018 World Cup.

In June 2016, to celebrate 10 successful years, after a lot of hard work, we finally managed to realize the dream we had cultivated for a long time: that of organizing an event which had global significance. To celebrate peace, we brought together not only the two strongest football players in history, but also the greatest rivals: Maradona and Pelè. In partnership with Hublot, we organized this unique event, which has gone down in history as a ‘Match of Friendship’.

This event had great relevance on all major world media due to its uniqueness and difficulty in terms of realization. Even the location required an exclusive setting, which is why a 5-a-side playing field was built, inside the Palais Royal, seat of the French State Council, providing a magical atmosphere, which enhanced all the protagonists on the field. In fact, not only were the two champions clashing, but also the two teams captained and coached by them, made up of great players of the recent past, amongst whom were World Champions and extraordinary players of the highest level.

The wonderful scenery, the large influx of audience, newspapers, TV and web titles, guaranteed the event was a great success and it held the spotlight in the main world newspapers and websites for days afterwards.
