Thomson Sport Channels ’66 With Wc Celebration

Thomson Sport is celebrating a successful end to a nervous Brazil 2014 qualification for England with the launch of its latest World Cup packages and an exclusive World Cup party for the first 66 bookings on the night of the competition draw. 

England confirmed their qualification for next summer’s FIFA World Cup in Brazil with a tense victory over Poland at Wembley.

After a win of Montenegro on Friday, Roy Hodgson’s side needed a further three points from their final qualifier to secure top spot in Group H, with rivals Ukraine winning 8-0 in San Marino.

However, in a team of young blood, it was the experienced Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard – with nearly 200 international caps between them – who broke a resolute Polish defence to secure a 2-0 victory and a flight to South America next summer. 

The official England fans tour operator has created a pre-draw ‘Official Follow England’ package, with supporters gaining access to all three group stage games in one travel package. 

According to the travel company, Thomson Sport’s World Cup party will also feature footballing legends, samba girls and Brazilian cocktails while watching the live World Cup draw.

Tom Forshaw, managing director of Thomson Sport, said: ‘The amazing result means we can all be part of what promises to be a fantastic World Cup in Brazil 2014. We have been planning our travel packages for the last four years to ensure fans wanting to follow England to the World Cup can enjoy the best football and the most amazing sights. Our packages are unique in the fact that we ensure fans can experience a hassle free trip of a lifetime to Brazil whilst being the only tour operator who offer a full money back guarantee should supporters not secure the vital match tickets.’

‘We have already seen huge demand for our packages with fans wanting to secure their place in Brazil, and as a leading tour operator for the World Cup, our “Official Follow England” package is sure to sell out in record time before the draw is made on 6th December.’

England joins teams from around the world who have also confirmed qualification: Brazil (hosts), Australia, Japan, Iran, South Korea, Belgium, Italy, Russia, Switzerland, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Costa Rica, USA, Argentina, Colombia.

Meanwhile, from the nine European World Cup qualifying groups, eight teams – Croatia, Sweden, Romania, Iceland, Portugal, Greece, Ukraine and France – will enter a two legged play-off for one of the four remaining places in Brazil.
