Once in a lifetime opportunity up for grabs for lucky fans...
Betfair, the world’s biggest betting community, is giving football fans the chance to go head-to-head in a penalty shootout at both Old Trafford and the Camp Nou.
The Betfair Penalty Champions campaign will give supporters the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to represent their club in the two-legged European contest, taking place at both venues during half-time of a first team match. The betting exchange is an official partner of both Manchester United and Barcelona.
Betfair customers can opt-in via the campaign website for the chance to be one of ten penalty takers, and represent their club on the big stage.
Lucky qualifiers will be given a penalty master class by a club legend at their respective training grounds.
The session will be filmed and hosted online where members of the public will be asked to vote for their favourite penalty. The top three performers from each side will get to pull on their club’s shirt and step out at both Old Trafford and Camp Nou.
The six winners will also get VIP travel to the stadiums, signed merchandise and £250 credited to their Betfair account as well, of course, as international bragging rights.
Betfair’s Head of UK Marketing, Matt Booth, said: “Manchester United and FC Barcelona are two of the biggest clubs in the world. As partners of both, this campaign is a great way of giving money-can’t-buy opportunities back to our customers.
“Every fan will want to be the envy of their friends and represent their club at two of the finest stadiums in world football. Hopefully the pressure won’t get to them and we’ll see some fantastic spot kicks!”
