Are you ready for some futbol?

Three of this week's best ads center on the FIFA World Cup tournament in June. Nike was out of the gate first with a spot about performing under pressure, but age-old competitors Coke and Pepsi were hot on its heels with two very different spots about the same sport.

Also this week, we have a Vodafone ad from the U.K. that takes an unusual tack to sell cell service; and one of the spots from Dermablend's viral campaign, featuring beautiful women speaking frankly about living with severe skin problems.

Take a look at our picks below, and help us decide which commercial was the best of the week.
