CHICAGO, July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Soccer fans are some of the most passionate in the world but cheering for your favorite soccer team can be stressful.

So just in time for the big tournament, Coors Light, the official beer of Leagues Cup, is committed to keeping you chill when fanxiety strikes. Fanxiety is the tension die hard soccer fans experience when watching their favorite teams take to the field in over 90-minutes of nonstop action. To alleviate fanxiety during the first-ever Leagues Cup, Coors Light is helping fans by upgrading a must-have staple in any soccer fans' wardrobe, the soccer scarf, to have the unique ability to keep fans chill…literally!

Plus, each scarf has a built-in neck massager and two beer pockets so you can keep your Coors Light on hand for anytime you want mountain cold refreshment. "We know sports fans get fired up about their teams and that's especially true of soccer lovers," said Marcelo Pascoa, vice president of marketing for the Coors Family of Brands. "With two major rival leagues going head-to-head for the first time ever at Leagues Cup this year, the matches are sure to be intense, but Coors Light will be there to keep your fanxiety chill." For a limited time, soccer fans looking to maintain their chill with a Chill Fanxiety Scarf can head over to the Coors Light shop site to buy these hand-made scarves for $30. Quantities are very limited with 22 scarves available per day from July 18 to August 2 starting at 12pm CST, while supplies last. Plus, Coors Light has partnered with soccer star Carlos Vela, a former MLS MVP, to spread the word about this game-changing soccer scarf and connect with soccer fans during this exciting first-ever tournament. Throughout the summer, Coors Light is furthering its commitment to soccer fans with thematic packaging, onsite activations, and athlete partnerships. Coors Light is also rolling out a new creative campaign that taps into soccer fanxiety and helps fans stay refreshed while they watch their favorite teams compete.
