Carlsberg lays on the perfect ride to surprise taxi drivers during the UEFA Nations League Finals™ 2025
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A fleet of football-fanatic taxi drivers were booked for what they thought was a standard fare, only to find on arrival that they were being surprised by Carlsberg with the opportunity to watch the UEFA Nations League Finals™ 2025, Semi Final 1 between Germany and Portugal in the ultimate football setting. As the official Beer of UEFA Men's National Team Football, Carlsberg wants to bring more access to the best of football around the world. With taxi drivers key to the nighttime economy, playing a fundamental role in helping fans enjoy the game fully – and ensuring they have a safe journey home – Carlsberg created the 'Fare Game' event to give back to theses drivers who so often miss out on watching football live. This comes as global research, commissioned by Carlsberg, revealed that whilst 9 in 10 taxi drivers around the world call themselves football fans, almost two thirds (60%) miss major football matches due to work. In fact, over half (58%) are simply unable to afford to take the time off, with financial pressures being a driving factor (86%). If they do make the tough call to tune into a match and sacrifice fares, they can lose out on upwards of £200 – demonstrating the real cost of being a fan behind the wheel. Perhaps that's why 9 in 10 have chosen to work when a sporting moment is on despite wanting to watch it. The taxi drivers arrived at The Fare Game cab park – the ultimate spectator zone specifically created by Carlsberg in Berlin to host the drivers – to watch the match on a cinematic screen. With Carlsberg 0.0 beer available for free, the delighted drivers could kick back, enjoy tasty snacks and cheer on their national team with fellow drivers. Topping this all off was the reassurance that Carlsberg would cover the full fare, so they weren't left out of pocket. "That was incredible. I was very surprised, I felt like a superstar. I had no idea about anything. There were so many people cheering us on. Thank you Carlsberg for giving us the opportunity to enjoy the match. It was just incredible!", said taxi driving football fan Mehdi Tamaz. With such a passion for the sport, missing out on big sporting events hits taxi drivers personally too. 6 out of 10 taxi drivers report that hearing celebrations while driving the streets heightens the feeling of missing out on a big sporting event, and a further 58% say they feel like a less dedicated fan when unable to watch live sporting events due to work. Choosing work over the football also sees taxi drivers miss out on the shared experience of watching with loved ones and other fans, something two fifths (58%) say they miss out on the most. And for those working, it means they have often watched a key moment like a semi-final match, with a passenger in the car (57%). Taxi drivers are often relied on by football fans to get them to the game, with 57% having helped fans make games they would have otherwise probably missed. This reliance on cabbies however leaves many having to resort to finding other ways to keep up to date with the latest scores. In fact, a fifth (21%) depend on the radio to keep up with the action and almost a quarter (26%) rely on asking their passengers for updates on the game. Meanwhile over a quarter are forced to use their breaks to catch the highlights (28%) or have even pulled over during rides to watch live moments of a match (27%). Lynsey Woods, Global Brand Director at Carlsberg said,"Carlsberg is committed to giving everyone access to the best of football and through our new partnership with UEFA, we were able to make this happen for some of the biggest fans out there – taxi drivers. We recognized that the dedication of taxi drivers to keep our city moving often meant they missed out on the biggest matches globally. So, we wanted to create an unforgettable experience for them and offer taxi drivers access to the game, allowing them to enjoy the best of football surrounded by other likeminded passionate fans." To bring the campaign to life, a short documentary film captured the drivers' emotional journey and the best moments from the event, with the film highlighting the sacrifices these drivers make and the power of shared experiences, find out more on Fare Game here. As part of Carlsberg's sponsorship of UEFA Men's National Team Football, the brand will continue to offer fans access to the best of football.

[김대균의 영어산책] "Flex" – 뽐내기와 자신감의 영어 표현
Flex란? 요즘 젊은 세대 사이에서 'flex'는 하나의 문화가 되었다. 'Flex'란 원래 '근육을 구부리다(자랑하듯 보여주다)'**는 뜻이지만, 요즘에는 비싼 물건, 능력, 라이프스타일 등을 자랑하다는 의미로 자주 사용된다. Flex (v.): to show off, to boast confidently or playfully 예: "He's flexing his new iPhone." 그 사람 새 아이폰 자랑 중이야. Flex 표현이 쓰이는 상황들 명품을 자랑할 때: 'She was flexing her Louis Vuitton bag at the party.' (파티에서 루이비통 가방 뽐냈어.) 운동 후 근육을 보여줄 때: 'Time to flex these gains!' (운동 성과 좀 보여줄까?) 재능이나 능력을 드러낼 때: 'He flexed his piano skills at the talent show.' (그 친구 재능쇼에서 피아노 실력 뽐냈지.) Flex 관련 재미있는 명언/유머 표현 센스 있는 영어 문장들 I don't mean to flex, but I just finished a 100-question TOEIC test in 20 minutes. 자랑하려는 건 아닌데, 토익 100문제 20분 만에 끝냈어요. Flexing isn't just about money—it's about confidence. Flex는 돈 자랑이 아니라 자신감의 표현이기도 하다! 'Not to flex, but I've memorized all TOEIC Part 5 vocabulary.' 자랑은 아니지만 토익 파트 5 단어는 다 외웠어요. (자랑 맞음 ) 유머 섞인 "Flex" 상황들 Friend: 'Did you just buy another pair of sneakers?' You: 'Yeah, just a little weekend flex.' 친구: 또 운동화 샀어? 나: 주말 기분 전환용 flex야~ "He posted his lunch on Instagram again. That's his daily flex." 또 점심 인스타 올렸네. 걔의 데일리 플렉스야. "Your English is so good!" "Oh, thanks! Just a little TOEIC flex." 영어 너무 잘하시네요! 아, 감사합니다. 그냥 토익 실력 좀 뽐낸 거예요~ Flex로 끝나는 명언 패러디 'To flex or not to flex, that is the question.'(To be or not to be , that is the question) 윌리엄 셰익스피어가 '사느냐 죽느냐 그것이 문제로다'를 빗대어 '자랑하느냐 마느냐, 그것이 문제로다' 'With great flex comes great responsibility.' 능력자라면 겸손도 필요합니다! 'I flex, therefore I am.'( I think, therefore I am.) 데카르트의 '나는 생각한다. 고로 나는 존재한다' 를 빗대어 '나는 자랑한다. 고로 나는 존재한다.'
