Brace yourself. Paddy Power have unleashed an American Beauty of a TV ad, bringing a never before told love story to our screens to excite fans ahead of the Premier League start of season. Peter Crouch gets frisky with a corner flag, and Mark Clattenburg embodies ‘Baby’ from Dirty Dancing as the two legends collide for the love of the little moments in the beautiful game, starring as the unlikely leading men in Paddy Power’s latest blockbuster campaign calling on fans to "Love Football. Intimately." With the help of some movie magic, Crouchy appears as you’ve never seen him before (unless you’re Abbey Clancy, who also features).
