Sprite echoes Leo Messi's comments with a clever post

Despite being a Pepsi ambassador, the number 10 declared that his favorite alcoholic drink is wine with Sprite, and the brand wasted no time reacting on social media.

The post reads "The best in the world refreshes himself however he wants," accompanied by emojis of a goat, a wine glass, and a bottle of the soda.

Sprite found a legal way to insert itself between Messi and PepsiCo; they never explicitly mention him or use his image, instead referring to him as "the best in the world" alongside a nod to his "G.O.A.T." nickname.
