Ana Malkovich: Binance’s Guest Table Football Competitor

One of the most talented soccer players from Croatia and Switzerland and a Binance brand partner, Ana is known for her outstanding skills on the field. With her energetic style of play and tenacity, she has become a major force in international women’s soccer.

Ana has also been eager to explore the innovative world of blockchain and digital assets. Working with Binance (including speaking with the best player of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo) was a great way to get involved in this new space.

Arriving from Zurich to our filming location in Lisbon, Portugal, Ana was ready and eager to compete with Cristiano on the court and table football. Ana explained: "I was so excited... it was a dream come true to meet my idol Cristiano!"

"I admire Cristiano's mentality very much. He is not just a 'football player', he is a role model for an entire generation."

The day ended with Ana and Cristiano playing a unique game of table football. Luckily, Ana is no novice at table football, claiming to be a 7-0 player.

To see exactly how she performs in this one-of-a-kind match, be sure to check back next week for our full match video!

Binance and Cristiano Ronaldo’s on-set story

Every great match requires a perfect setting, and our location in Portugal was no exception. Located on the outskirts of Lisbon, it provided the perfect setting for us to record Cristiano and Ana’s table football match.

Of course, working alongside the professional videographers and contestants was the Binance team, who put in months of preparation and hard work to ensure the success of the day, committed to fully showcasing our partners and their experiences, stories, and skills.

“We spent two days preparing on set before Cristiano and Ana joined us. Everything was carefully prepared, choreographed and staged to make for an unforgettable day!”
