The newest [Gatorade](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gatorade-canada) magician commercial is pretty hilarious, capitalizing off of the not-so good athletes in the world. The commercial features a soccer player who is called "the magician."

Then we wonder what the soccer player would be like if he actually was a magician and let's just say, it isn't pretty. The premise for the ad is essentially that Gatorade is ideal for all athletes, namely because you have a team behind you. The Gatorade magician commercial is certainly cute and funny.
