  • Roma, Lazio and Napoli Fighting for 2Nd Place
    Sports FRIDAY, MAY 8, 2015 46 Barca host Sociedad, eying Spanish crown BARCELONA: Still basking in its 3-0 win over Bayern Munich, Barcelona now needs to protect its lead in the Spanish league. Barcelona leads Real Madrid by two points with three matches remaining, although the end of the season is now in doubt. On Wednesday, the Spanish soccer federation decided to sus- pend all league and Copa del Rey matches from May 16 in protest at a proposed law on the sale of television rights and the division of the income earned. That could make this week- end’s matches even more important. With both coming off Champions League games, Barcelona will host Real Sociedad tomorrow while Madrid hosts Valencia later in the day. Barcelona closed in on a spot in the Champions League final on Wednesday, getting a pair of goals from Lionel Messi in the 3-0 win over Bayern. Madrid lost 2-1 at Juventus on Tuesday. Here are some things to know about this weekend’s matches: More Messi magic All the talk in Barcelona yesterday was about Messi’s per- formance against Bayern. The Argentina forward again showed why he is one of the best ever when he netted two goals to finally break through a defense Bayern coach Pep Guardiola had crafted to keep his former pupil in check. Messi used a pinpoint strike to slot a shot between goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and the post to get the lead in the 77th minute. He bettered that three minutes later when a quick change of foot sent defender Jerome Boateng tumbling to the turf before he made it look easy as he chipped the ball over the Germany’s world champion goalkeeper.

Abstract Sports hold an important place in every society and are consumed in a wide variety of ways. They inclusively carry noble values and contribute improving social cohesion. Sports today are considered as one of the main sources of entertainment and major sports events attract sponsors ready to offer colossal contracts for more exposure. Powerful brands inject billions of dollars in the sports industry every year and in return want to be seen, heard and liked. They are influential in different ways and might even be changing the way we look at sport. The objective of this paper is to study the ways in which sponsoring, precisely kit deals and stadium naming rights can influence the image of football. Keywords: sports; sponsorship; club culture; football; kits; naming rights 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank both of my professors Pierre Lévy and Daniel Paré for their guidance and their precious feedback.
