Carlsberg Teams Up With F2 Freestylers
Carlsberg, the official beer of UEFA Euro 2016, has teamed up with the freestyling duo, The F2 Freestylers, to recreate the ten best Euro moments from the past 40 years.
With 100 days to go until the UEFA Euro’s get underway, the ten-episode mini-series includes great goals and moments of football from matches including Netherlands against Soviet Union in 1988, Sweden versus England in 1992, Czech Republic vs. Portugal in 1996 and France vs. Portugal in 2000.
Replays of the action are seen through ‘Carlsberg Cam’, filmed with a drone and cameras fixed to the F2 Freestylers, giving a new perspective on the footballing moments.
The ten episodes will be released one by one for ten weeks from 2nd March on Carlsberg’s new football hub, Carlsberg.Football, and Carlsberg’s Facebook and Twitter feeds.
Each episode will also offer football fans the chance to win tickets to the Semi Final at the Stade de Lyon and the chance to play on the same pitch the following day with legendary players from past Euro tournaments.
Billy Wingrove, F2 Freestylers, said: “The Euros always delivers great football moments and whilst the pro players make it look easy, recreating them touch for touch is anything but. It’s lucky that we love a challenge.
“We can’t wait to see what unbelievable moves come out of Euro 2016 so with these recreations we’re hoping to inspire fans around the world to enter Carlsberg’s competition and take their chance to create their own moment of football history on pitch at the Stade de Lyon.”
