JOGA C^JWp0 World of Heineken 38 summer 2008 The thirteenth Heineken Cup season came to an exhilarating climax on May 24 when Stade Toulousain and Munster Rugby met in Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. The entire city was temporarily put on hold as thousands of rugby fans flocked to the Welsh capital to witness the final match in what is arguably the leading club tournament in world rugby. They were in for a treat. In what the press dubbed "an epic clash," Munster prevailed by a narrow three-point margin, making the Irish rugby team the champions of Europe. Cardiff "turned green" for the weekend of the match with fans arriving in the city by train greeted by Heineken banners, displayed all over the station. Many fans made use of the official Heineken Cup Final Hat, while no fewer than 15 outlets were branded Official Heineken Cup Bars for the occasion. Even lamp posts in the city centre were turned green with Heineken flags. Heineken also hosted a pre-match event at Terra Nova, a major Cardiff nightspot. Former World Cup winner and Heineken rugby ambassador, Will Greenwood dispensed both valuable insight and cold Heineken to the luckiest of fans at this key bar in Cardiff Bay. www.rugbyworldcup.com Luis Figo, one of Portugal's most celebrated football superstars, is this year participating in a responsible consumption campaign sponsored by Sagres Zero to promote safe driving and a healthy lifestyle. As part of the campaign, the footballer invites Portuguese consumers to join the Sagres Zero League. Sagres Zero is Portugal's number-one non-alcoholic beer brand. The campaign has been endorsed by the Portugal Auto Association and the Portuguese Road Prevention campaign. In a series of TV commercials, consumers were shown situations where non-alcoholic beer is recommended as part of a healthy lifestyle. Consumers were also given the opportunity to join a special team lead by Figo during a match against international football stars on June 6, the day before the kick-off of Euro 2008. The Sagres brand has had close ties with football for the past 15 years, and has supported the Portuguese National Football Team since 1993. Sagres is also sponsoring the team in the lead up to the European national championships. Recently, Sagres Zero expanded its portfolio with Sagres Zero Limalight, a non-alcoholic beer with a soft lemon flavor. GANHA! SNUkK> GANHA PRÉMIOS FANTASTICOS. \~xsL.
