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.

Puma Launches Special Italy Team Kit
2013-03-19 11:37 CET PUMA LAUNCHES SPECIAL ITALY TEAM KIT Coverciano, Italy – PUMA today introduced a special Italy national football team kit for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup. At a launch event in Coverciano, the training ground of the national team, PUMA presented the new kit together with Gianluigi Buffon and Andrea Pirlo of the ‘Squadra Azzurra’ to the press. The kit will be worn on pitch for the first time in this week’s match against the 2013 Confederations Cup hosts Brazil in Geneva. For the first time in PUMA’s history, the replica shirt is made from 100% recycled Polyester, representing a further step in the Sportlifestyle brand’s sustainability strategy. The official Italy team kit to be worn by ‘The Azzurri’ this summer features enhanced moisture management through the use of a fabric made of recycled polyester and Cocona®, which is an activated carbon made from coconut shells. This mixture of materials provides a superior level of comfort and performance. The new design features a new striking look, including an embossed Power graphic that fades from bold to light. The visual design, evolved from PUMA’s 2012 Power range, emphasises the physical aspects of a player even more prominently. A fluorescent blue piping on the collar and around the font adds a new unique appeal to the shirt. Additional details include the ‘Tricolore’ coloured cuffs and inserts at the bottom of the shirt that represent the national flag of Italy. Giorgio Chiellini, the Italian International attended the launch event and commented, “It is a great moment to wear a new Italian national team kit for the first time on the pitch.

World Cup 2014, Great Start for Italy. Make us Dream Again, Guys! Published on iItaly.org (http://www.iitaly.org) World Cup 2014, Great Start for Italy. Make us Dream Again, Guys! Giulia Madron (June 16, 2014) Winning debut for Italy at the World Cup 2014 in Brazil. The “Azzurri” of Prandelli beat the English lions during the first game of round D thanks to the goals of Marchisio and Balotelli. Prandelli and Chiellini said it: you are going to see another Italy in the field. They meant it! The National Italian team inaugurated the World Cup 2014 [2] in Brazil with a bang. On Saturday the 12th, in Manaus, Italy played their first game of round D against England. A fearful rival but the “Azzurri” of Cesare Prandelli did not disappoint the fans and the success in Brazil confirmed the tradition of the positive results against the English who have not beaten Italy in official matches since 1977. A difficult start for Italy, which in the first minutes of the game struggled on the accelerations of the English lions. Giorgio Chiellini, who is not a fullback player, really suffered from the attacks of Raheem Sterling and Danny Wellbeck who scared the Italian goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu three times within the first 10 minutes. Convincing center field. Nothing to say about Italy’s center field. A tireless Candreva pushed in search of the shot, Marco Verratti never lost the ball and Andrea Pirlo acted as a movie director having the perfect vision of the whole game. And Claudio Marchisio scored (35’) with a harsh kick on the right corner that Joe Hart could not get.

Key Brand Elements That Can Be Affected by Sponsorship Scandals and How To
Should we stay or should we go? Key brand elements that can be affected by sponsorship scandals and how to communicate the “go-decision” Carolin Bruder, Jakob Ivarsson & Helena Lübeck Ssss Should we stay or should we go? Key brand elements that can be affected by sponsorship issues and how to communicate the “go-decision” Jakob Ivarsson, Carolin Bruder & Helena Lübeck Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine how sponsorship crises can affect brands. Especially brands that have decided to part from their athletes are taken into account in this paper. Besides that, it aims to establish managerial guidelines that help to communicate the termination of sponsorship activities. Methodology: To understand the underlying theory, secondary data is gathered through a detailed literature review. Moreover, this research is based on several case studies of different brands that have ended their relationships with their sponsored athletes. Therefore, the multiple case study approach is used to gain a deep insight into the different responses in different contexts. The primary data is obtained solely through surveys. Findings: The research demonstrates that depending on the nature of the sponsorship issue, companies consider different key brand elements to be affected. This leads to a framework that supports companies in the future on how a sponsorship issue can affect the brand. In total, three key elements of primary importance and two of secondary importance are identified. Furthermore, the framework gives helpful guidelines on which external communication strategy to choose. Six different communication approaches were identified based on the situational context and the key brand elements that might be affected due to the sponsorship issue.

As Roma:The Heart of Rome
AS ROMA:THE HEART OF ROME On the 21st july 1927 ,Alba, Roman and Fortitudo, three Roman football clubs, merged and they founded the Associazione Sportiva Roma, generally called AS Roma. During the 1920s throughout the 1940s the team played on the mythical field "Testaccio", where the legend of this incredible football team capable to beat the prestigious Juventus 5-0 was created. The first Italian championship was won during the season 1941-1942,in 1961 the club won its first and only international trophy, the UEFA Cup. After a long period of not such brilliant results, in 1982-1983 AS Roma won the championship once again and in the following year the club was beaten by Fc Liverpool in the Champions League final to the penalties. After this event the team did not manage to win anything important until its third championship in 2000-2001. Lots of important football players have always played for this team, like the Brazilian Falcao, Cafù and Aldair, the French Vincent Candela, the Argentinian Batistuta and the Ita lian champions of the world Bruno Conti, Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi. Today AS Roma is one of the most important European football teams, it always takes part in the Champions League and its name and its players are known all over the world. Its s upporters are known as hearty and passionate and they support the team in a very folkloristic way. The heart of supporters is Curva Sud, the hottest part of the Olimpic stadium, in which people always watch the matches singing, standing up and making stained colourful coreographies.

Roma, meanwhile, were second to holders Real Madrid in Group G and have lost their last two UEFA Champions League games – although their campaign has also included their biggest victory in the competition. Previous meetings • Porto are unbeaten in their four matches with Roma, knocking out the Italian side in the second round of the 1981/82 European Cup Winners' Cup thanks to a 2-0 home first-leg victory that took them through by the same aggregate scoreline. • Porto players also provided both goals when the sides met again in Portugal in the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League play-offs, although this time it ended in a 1-1 draw; André Silva's 61st-minute penalty got the home side back on terms after a Felipe own goal had given Roma a first-half lead.
