The Fifa World Cup in South Africa is almost here and there is still chance for England fans to compete for exclusive prizes and, at the same time, record a rousing team talk to motivate their team.  The Carlsberg England Team Talk challenge is an interactive competition with exclusive prizes, including the chance to meet some of the England football team and maybe even star in a Carlsberg advert.

The build-up to the World Cup never seems to goes smoothly for England and this year has been no exception – following scandals about senior players, now Rio Ferdinand’s injury means the captain’s hopes of lifting the Jules Rimet trophy have been cruelly dashed at the last moment.

This is why Carlsberg believe it’s even more important than ever to keep the team’s spirits up and motivate them in their World Cup 2010 campaign with an inspirational team talk.

Thousands of fans have already submitted their England Team Talk videos to the official YouTube site (http://www.youtube.com/user/EnglandTeamTalk) – but there is still chance to win exclusive prizes, including the opportunity to deliver the team talk in person to members of the England team at a special VIP day at Wembley stadium.

Carlsberg, an official beer of the England football team, first invited fans to produce an England Team earlier in the year. Since the Carlsberg England Team Talk channel was launched, thousands of people have uploaded videos and recorded messages for the England team.

Visitors to the YouTube channel can also get the latest news from the World Cup, including match updates and facts of the day.

Astonishingly, Spain has never progressed beyond the quarter final stage of the World Cup since they finished fourth in 1950.  Despite the strength of their domestic league and European triumphs for Real Madrid and Barcelona, Spain are one of international football’s perennial underachievers and couldn’t even mount a challenge at their own World Cup in 1982.

However, this time round, things look different.  They are reigning European champions, top of the FIFA rankings and are on a run of form that is the envy of every other nation in the world.

Could this finally be Spain’s year?  The bookmakers think so.  According to Paddy Power who offer a range of World Cup odds Spain are the 4/1 favourites to lift the World Cup in Johannesburg on July 11^th. Read more…
