- What it means
We think Ronaldo's farewell creates a short-lived opportunity to test whether enormous public attention can turn into actual spending on licensed football products.
- Why it matters
The overlooked question is not how many people watched the video. It is how many became willing to pay for something they had not intended to purchase.

- What we don't know
However, no evidence yet proves the farewell has increased their sales.
