England left-back
joins England's 100 cap club when England face Brazil at Wembley Feb. 6.
Nike
athlete Ashley Cole will join England’s 100 cap club when he takes to the
Wembley pitch against Brazil this evening. He becomes only the seventh player
to reach this milestone. Even more impressively, Ashley has made the starting
XI every single time. Ashley can celebrate 100 England caps, 100 England starts,
over 8,166 minutes played and five international tournaments.
To
mark this landmark occasion, Cole will run out in a pair of personalized Nike
Tiempo Legend IV boots. The boots are embroidered with messages designed to
celebrate his achievement: a St George’s cross, his initials and squad number
("AC 3"), "England vs Brazil" and "100th Cap."
Ashley's
boots were presented to him Feb. 5 at The FA's St George’s Park facility in a
specially designed presentation box.
Crafted
from premium leather designed to provide a soft, supple touch and comfortable
fit, the Tiempo Legend IV, like all Nike football boots, includes All
Conditions Control (ACC) technology. Using an innovative coating, ACC ensures
that the boot upper delivers consistent friction between foot and ball in wet
and dry weather conditions alike.
