Prizes for World Cup fans
SPONSORSHIP
SHOPPERS are in with a chance to win a range of football prizes, including a soccer kit for everyone in their local team.
World Cup sponsor Johnson & Johnson (J&J) has joined forces with Dunnes Stores and SuperValu for the kit giveaway, while pharmacies nationwide are awarding hi-tech Xperia Tablets and 450 runner-up FIFA merchandise kits.
In addition, J&J Ireland is running a competition with RTE.ie so one family will get to meet and greet Robbie Keane's cousin and Bohemians star Jason Byrne (pictured with young fan) to "talk tactics" and have a knock-about with him followed by a BBQ in their back garden.
"We're delighted to be able to be part of the fun that is FIFA 2014 and even though we're not officially in it this year, we hope to generate a sense of excitement about the tournament," said head of J&J Ireland, David Hall.
J&J is the official global health care sponsor for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
