Press Information Hyundai inleder samarbete med världsstjärnorna Casillas och Kaká inför fotbolls-VM i Rio - Världsstjärnorna ska stärka Hyundais relationer till fotbollsfans - Långtgående sponsorskap av fotbolls-VM 11 mars 2014 – Idag tillkännager Hyundai Motor Company att man inlett ett samarbete med två av världens största fotbollsstjärnor, spanjoren Iker Casillas och brasilianaren Ricardo Kaká, som globala ambassadörer för fotbolls-VM i Brasilien där Hyundai är officiell partner. “Det känns väldigt spännande att dessa fotbollsstjärnor blir våra ambassadörer för VM”, säger Tk Uk Im, verkställande direktör och COO för Hyundai Motor Company. ”Genom Casillas och Kaká hoppas vi att hela världen kommer kunna dela spänningen och passionen som är associerad med fotboll, samtidigt som vi visar Hyundais engagemang i världens populäraste sport”, fortsätter han. Casillas, som idag är förstamålvakt för Real Madrid, har spelat fotbolls-VM tre gånger och anses vara en av världens i särklass bästa målvakter. Mittfältaren Kaká, som idag spelar för A.C Milan, har också tre VM på sitt CV och tilldelades “FIFA World Player of the Year” samt ‘Ballon d'Or’ under 2007. Hyundai har även inlett ett samarbete med brasilianaren Emboaba Oscar som lokal varumärkesambassadör för turneringen i Brasilien. Oscar spelar idag som mittfältare för Chelsea F.C. Ambassadörerna spelar en central roll i relationsbyggandet mellan Hyundai och fotbollsfansen genom ett stort antal aktiviteter som äger rum under året. Det innefattar bland annat TV- och printreklam, digital marknadsföring och event på plats. Hyundais partnerskap med FIFA började 1999 och kommer att löpa till och med VM 2022. Hyundai har sponsrat några av FIFAs största arrangemang genom åren, som exempelvis VM i Korea/Japan (2002), VM i Tyskland (2006) och VM i Sydafrika (2010). Vid sidan av VM sponsrar Hyundai även andra stora fotbollsarrangemang, som exempelvis Confederations Cup. Det internationella sponsorskapet av fotboll har haft en stor, positiv inverkan på Hyundais varumärke och image. Roland Bägén är marknadsdirektör på Hyundai Bilar AB och är entusiastisk till sponsorskapet: ”Det känns riktigt kul att vi ännu en gång är officiell partner för världens absolut största idrottshändelse. Detta är en mycket viktig del i vårt varumärkesarbete där vi aktivt arbetar för att stärka Hyundais position på såväl den svenska som den internationella marknaden. Och även om vårt svenska lag inte nådde hela vägen fram till Rio så tror jag ändå att det kommer bli ett väldigt spännande VM” Iker Casillas Fernández (Spanien, 32 år) - Nuvarande lag / roll: Real Madrid C.F.

  • Adidas – Euro 2012 Player Quotes Iker Casillas
    adidas – Euro 2012 Player quotes Iker Casillas - Spain Your last game is against Croatia, how do you feel ahead of this game? Our last game in our group is against Croatia and I expect this to be a very good game – it could well decide the group winners. They’ve got good attacking players like Modric and Rakitic and they play a similar style of football to us. I expect it to be very open with lots of chances for both teams and I hope we can come out on top. Who are the teams and players to look out for at Euro 2012? At Euro 2012 I think Germany will be a really strong team, they’ve got a good balanced side and played very well at the World Cup. Holland as well, runners up at the last World Cup, are a really good team. When they beat Brazil in 2010 they took a big step forward. However there are also teams like France, England and Portugal to watch out for. Take us back and tell us how it felt when you won the 2008 Euros and 2010 World Cup? I felt more intense emotions and joy at the 2008 Euros. It was my first major title with the Spanish national team and that’s when I fulfilled my childhood dream. The World Cup is the biggest tournament you can win on the national stage and it’s the dream for anyone who likes football – luckily I managed to make two dreams come true in two years! The two tournaments will always be very closely linked in my mind will always be the most special to me.

  • A Lesson in Humility
    A Lesson in Humility There was so much to admire in Spain’s journey to the summi of world football during the 2010 World Cup: Vicente Del Bosque’s wise management, Xavi’s brilliant orchestration of the play, Andrés Iniesta’s incisive running with the ball, David Villa’s prowess in front of goal, and the goalkeeping exploits of Iker Casillas. But for those of us who observed the current World and European champions at close quarters, it was not only their football ability that impressed. Their human qualities, in particular the humility displayed by many of the Spanish players, gained them respect beyond their technical achievements. Was this positive behaviour just a lucky coincidence or was it the result of a culture within the Spanish game? It is easy to see that this successful generation of Spanish footballers are modest, unpretentious and happy to promote a “we” mentality. As Xavi stated during the World Cup: “We are a group of very normal, very hard working people who love the game.” The same can be said of their head coach, Vicente Del Bosque, who has won both the UEFA Champions League and the World Cup with his respectful, patient and unassuming style of management. What is not on public display is the process which has nurtured many of these gifted players, young men who have their feet firmly on the ground. As Fernando Hierro, sports director at the Spanish FA (the RFEF), and Ginés Meléndez, RFEF coaching school director, informed the participants at UEFA’s recent national coaches conference in Madrid, the aim in Spain is to educate talented youngsters to play, to compete and to develop a psychological balance.

The Morocco striker also scored a treble two weeks ago. It is understood that with Benzema playing, he is the first line of attack amongst the BBC trio. The two goals made him the top French scorer in La Liga history surpassing Zidane.

  • Uefa.Com Users' Team of the Year 2007 Revealed
    Media Release Date: 18/01/2008 Communiqué aux médias No. 006 Medien-Mitteilung uefa.com users’ Team of the Year 2007 revealed AC Milan players rewarded in poll The uefa.com users’ Team of 2007 has been announced, with UEFA Champions League winners AC Milan having the most players in this year’s selection. Over 3.75 million votes were cast by 277,985 individual uefa.com users in the poll. The dream dozen contains just two survivors from last year’s team along with five newcomers. Milan’s trio includes central defender Alessandro Nesta, who was also selected in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and left midfield player Clarence Seedorf, who also appeared in the 2002 team. Colleague Kaká with 220,333 votes received the highest number of votes overall and is selected for a second successive year, this time as attacking midfielder. Also surviving from last year’s team is Steven Gerrard, who is selected for a third time, and is the only player from beaten UEFA Champions League finalists Liverpool FC to feature. English clubs are to the fore, though, with John Terry – selected in 2005 – and newcomer Didier Drogba from Chelsea FC joined by Cristiano Ronaldo, whose previous selection came in 2004. His Manchester United FC coach Sir Alex Ferguson is perhaps belatedly selected for the first time, recognition of his achievement in guiding his team a ninth Premier League title under his stewardship. Another somewhat belated newcomer is Real Madrid CF goalkeeper Iker Casillas, while Sevilla FC right-back Daniel Alves, FC Barcelona left-back Eric Abidal and FC Internazionale Milano striker Zlatan Ibrahimović are also selected for the first time.

  • Reflections on the World Cup JAIME RAMIREZ
    Reflections on the World Cup JAIME RAMIREZ In 2018 the World Cup will be held in Russia and the buzz around the world is one of ecstasy, particularly for young countries that qualified for the first time, like Iceland and Panama. With World Cup fixtures, the Netherlands and the United States, failing to qualify for the final stage, there is talk of major change in both federations. The United States, in particular, had been mak- ing important strides in recent Cups, making it to the second round routinely. This setback will undoubtedly make U.S. Soccer come to terms with the real- ity that major changes need to be made in order for the team to return to the world stage, especially as the U.S. has submitted a joint bid (with Mexico and Canada) to host the 2026 World Cup. Recently, I heard a network announcer ask his colleagues, “Do you remem- ber the first World Cup that you saw?” It was interesting to hear recollections on what is generally recognized as the greatest sporting event on earth. Here are my own earliest recollections, and how they have shaped my life. The first World Cup that I watched was the 1966 event hosted by England (the last one televised in black and white). The Cup introduced me to “El Rey” Pele (Edson Arantes do Nascimento) from Brazil, the “Black Panther of Mo- zambique,” Eusebio from Portugal, and the Charlton brothers, Jackie and Bob- by, from the eventual winner England. I remember sitting on the living room floor of our house in Mexicali and hearing the announcer continually mention the name “Charlton.” As days went by and England advanced, it dawned on me that there were two Charltons, Bobby and Jackie—gradually, I was able to distinguish between the brothers.
