We hand the reproduction storyboard straight to the crew. It's the closest thing to a shot list we've ever gotten out of a piece of software.

Opens with a jaw-dropping athletic moment to immediately grab attention and establish the football context.
Erling Haaland in a dark Manchester City away kit (black/navy) executes a dramatic high overhead kick or bicycle-kick attempt; his right leg fully extended upward toward a gold/white ball. Two opponents in white kits (numbered 3 visible) are nearby on the right. Background: dark stadium with vivid blue spotlight flare in upper-right corner, packed crowd in deep shadow, UEFA Champions League FedEx LED perimeter boards visible in blue/red. Colour palette: deep navy, bright blue lens flare, green pitch, white kit contrast.
