You can get drinks completely free at this Abu Dhabi sports bar

The great deal is available during the African Cup of Nations

The football season is over but that doesn’t mean there are no matches to watch during the summer months.

The FIFA Women’s World Cup, Copa America and African Cup of Nations are here to keep football fans ticking over until club football returns in August.

Heading out to watch a game? The good news is at one Abu Dhabi venue you can get free drinks while watching the game.

At Velocity, football fans can order selected beverages absolutely free after African Cup of Nations matches kick-off.

Sounds too good to be true? Well, there’s a catch.

Drinks will remain free of charge until the first foul of the game is called by the referee.

A bad tackle, a handball and it’s back to regular service, but the longer the game goes on without the referee spoiling the fun then, for want of a better phrase, it’s game on.

Sometimes it will be over quickly, but not always, and if you’re lucky you could make the most of this excellent deal while watching a game.

We don’t know about you, but it’s seems like there’s one great place in the city to watch football this summer and we’re marking the fixtures in our calendars already.
