February 2008: 100 days before the start of the UEFA EURO 2008™

Continental presents video quiz at www.euro2008.com

Hanover (pps) Continental AG, one of the official sponsors of the 2008 UEFA European Football Championship 2008 really came up with something good! On the official UEFA internet site, www.euro2008.com, Europe’s leading tire manufacturer presents an exclusive quiz with moving pictures of the last five European championships for all football fans.

Do you remember the final match in 1988 in Munich: USSR against the Netherlands? Can you recall how Oliver Bierhoff made the golden goal in the 1996 final match against the Czech Republic? Thanks to Continental AG, you can refresh those memories at www.euro2008.com in a playful manner.

And this is how the game works: The fan sees a video sequence. At some point the image stops, and he/she has to guess: What happens next? Does the ball go in or miss? Who will score the goal? Own goal or deflected?

If the answer is correct, an expert explains the situation, helping the player learn a bit more about football. After that, the fan can then challenge the experts in a football quiz, or go against other users to demonstrate his/her knowledge. The best online football players receive attractive prizes such as tickets, tire vouchers and footballs. The new games start on the official UEFA site on February 28. The date was not chosen by chance: It is precisely 100 days before the opening match.

Alexander Lührs, head of public relations for Passenger and Light Truck Tires at Continental AG: "We believe that this exclusive online offering is an ideal addition to our own websites www.ContiSoccerWorld.de and www.ContiFanWorld.com and want to use the heavy interest in the official UEFA website to draw the attention of as many football fans as possible to our internet sites in a pleasant manner." In this way, it’s a safe bet that Continental is accompanying the football fans actively to the UEFA EURO 2008™!

Of course, Timo Hildebrand also plays a role in the video quiz at www.euro2008.com, as the German national goal keeper has been Continental’s advertising partner since 2004. The goalie of FC Valencia gives his expert commentary on the match scenes. Exclusive video information about his situation in Valencia is provided by Continental at www.ContiSoccerWorld.de.
