THE WORLD CUP SO FAR
MAIN MENU
During the group stages of the 2014 World Cup, football TV audience records have been
broken around the globe, keeping it on track to surpass the 3.2 billion reach of the 2010
World Cup SouthAfrica.
The 2014 FIFA World Cup is moving fast, bringing football fans around the world together to experience the
emotions, controversies and celebrations that come with the global sporting event. Fans have been able to
catch all of the excitement that takes place on the pitch as it happens, as they want to experience the ‘live’
event. As a result, TV audience records have been broken in several countries, including the USA, Brazil,
France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, UK, Spain and Japan.
200 million people generated 815 million Facebookinteractions and 300 million Tweets
were recorded during the group stage of the World Cup.
As Omnicom Media Group predicted, the 2014 FIFA World Cup is the world’s biggest social and mobile sport
phenomenon, with Facebook and Twitter both breaking records during the group stage matches. With fans
looking to social media platforms to experience and interact with the World Cup, brands are also taking the
opportunity to engage with this mass audience. Social media has enabled brands to interact with different
target audiences, engaging them in a tailored way. Furthermore, social media has allowed brands to take
advantage of reacting to key moments of the event, such as the Suarez incident, maximising their relevance
to fans. However, brands that decide to take to social platforms must remember that even if it is a local
activation that they are implementing, their audience is global – making local nuances ever important.
Football fans have watched more than 1.2 billion minutes of World Cup ads on YouTube.
Although TV remains the main way football fans are watching the World Cup, it is no longer the only avenue
for brands to interact with them. Overall, the 2014 World Cup has challenged conventional advertising, with
sponsors turning to new and more interactive ways of engaging with fans. We are seeing many different
approaches in how brands are trying to be noticed throughout the World Cup, including: athlete brand
ambassadors, news hubs, social network accounts and in the moment dynamic media content, among
others. With less of a rule book to follow, unofficial sponsor brands are also trying to leverage new marketing
channels to increase their brand presence as a result of the World Cup.
In order to capture the progression of the World Cup, we have conducted a mix of different methodologies.
For more information about the methodologies used, please click here.
WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THE READ!
The World Cup is well under way and
deep down until the knock out stages,
with many surprises having taken
place; but it is safe to say that the
globe has been sweptby World Cup
fever.
While the 2014 FIFA World Cup is the
world’s biggest social and mobile
sporting phenomenon, TV however still
remains the main viewing point.

TRENDSPOTTERS
The event has now kicked off … and all the
attention turned on to the football! As expected,
now that the tournament is well under way, the
focus has shifted towards the action on the field.
Football is now a dominant topic of conversation and many report
that while they were not feeling particularly excited at the start of
the tournament, now that it is under way (and the Brazilian team
remains in the tournament) the excitement levels are rising.
However, many say that this tournament has not been as exciting
as previous World Cups (although there have been plenty of
shocks, including Spain’s exit).
Dissatisfaction with alleged corruption and the cost of the
tournament remain but vocal and physical protest is now in the
minority – the focus is now firmly on the football.
While many conversations centre around local players, players
from Europe (e.g. Van Persie) are also widely discussed. A
number of memes have become very popular, often beginning
during the matches themselves as viewers make contributions
via social media in real time.
Best Regards,
HOW DO THEY FEEL
ABOUT THE EVENT?
“The atmosphere is very lively and positive.
Many felt it would be a logistical disaster with
fans having a lot of difficulty getting around but
things have been going pretty well so far. It
can’t be denied that many of the problems that
people predicted have happened, but perhaps
they weren’t quite as bad. Most Brazilians
seem to be enjoying the football lots, as well
as the foreigners, praising the warm welcome
from Brazilians and making the most of their
time here during the World Cup.”
the World Cup”. -São Paulo
“Most Brazilians thought the opening
ceremony was not the way it should be, to
show the Brazilian culture of famous and
traditional parties like Carnival. They think if
it was produced by a Brazilian artist it would
be more attractive. They also complained
about the choice of international singers to
present the event: Jennifer Lopez and
Pitbull. The press around the world also
complained about the short duration of the
event (25 minutes).”
(25 minutes)”. -Rio Janeiro
HOW ARE THEY
PLANNING TO WATCH IT?
“People are often meeting up and coming
together to watch the matches, making every
one a social event. From what I’ve seen, it’s
independent of age or social grade. Everyone
has been very enthusiastic and loud during
most matches, no matter who’s playing. But
unsurprisingly, it’s always much louder during
the Brazil matches. I haven’t really heard of
any crazy things because their team’s won.”
-São Paulo
WHAT DO THEY THINK
OF BRANDS PARTICIPATING?
“There is the constant barrage of adverts on TV in
between matches and at half time, but I have seen
little evidence of people talking about actions from
brands. It seems that now that the football has
started, that’s all that anyone is talking about.”
-São Paulo
“Brands that stand out at this point are Nike, Coca-
Cola, Itaú (bank) and Skol beer. Some of the Itaú
bank campaigns motivated people because of their
song “Show your strength, Brazil”. The Skol
campaign is also very captivating because it’s a
funny way to welcome the tourists abroad.“
-Rio de Janeiro
“I really haven’t seen
any brands winning
people’s hearts.”
“The main conversation is not
about brands but about the
football supporters and the
parties that follow victories.”
“Well, people prefer to watch the
TV with family and friends, and to
have a barbecue. About the
tickets, as it’s so expensive, it’s not
easy for many Brazilians to be in
the stadium. Social media is very
funny to see during the games and
lots of people follow the game
online at the same time as
watching live.”

Unsurprisingly, TV is still the main media driving
sponsorship awareness. However, advertising around
the pitch has a massive impact in driving awareness of
brands in a sporting event such as the World Cup,
surpassing the Internet, which is more relevant for
delivering context for brands around the event rather
than building awareness.

6. In 2006, FIFA adopted a
new commercial strategy introducing
a three-tier sponsorship structure. The first
Tier are FIFA Partners, the second are FIFA World Cup
Sponsors and the third are National Supporters for each
FIFA event. The first tier has the highest level of association
with FIFA, FIFA events and the development of football
worldwide, increasing the value and engagement for both
sides. The second tier has rights to the FIFA Confederations
Cup and the FIFA World Cup on a global basis, allowing
them to use selected marketing assets and media exposure
as well as ticketing and hospitality offers for the event. The
third tier allows brands with ties to the hosting countries of
FIFA events to promote an association in the domestic
market. All sponsors are provided a wide product category
exclusivity, allowing them to distinguish themselves from
competing brands in their category.

So far this World Cup has shown
us the power of being a social brand.
It has been known that social media has changed the environment in
ways brands can interact with consumers – and the brand winners of
the 2014 World Cup so far have truly embraced being social. What
we are seeing is that there is a strong link between the brands that
are the most recalled and their online presence.
Below are some winning behaviours that have been implemented:
• Act globally, while thinking about how local markets might react.
• Adopt a relevant, fun and human tone of voice.
• Have frequent updates, including content that has eye-catching
images in order to stand out.
• Use multiple platforms in a coherent and complementary way (such
as Tumblr, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc.).
• Apply caution when using certain teams and players, thinking about
worst-case scenarios such as being eliminated at the group stage.
• Engage your audience by letting them interact with your brand or
message in a personal way.
These behaviours can be used both by sponsors and unofficial
sponsors, making the competition among brands during sporting
events a little more complicated.

WHAT’S
HAPPENING?
After Spain’s elimination in the World Cup, the La Roja
team is going to be rebuilt. The 2014 World Cup will be the
last international level fixture for many of Spain's stars:
David Villa, Xavi, Xabi Alonso and Iker Casdillas are
considering retirement.
Ghana’s World Cup team had not been paid for their
appearance fees since the World Cup started, since
players and the government could not settle on the form of
payment. After a decision had been made Ghana
government officials pre-financed the payment in cash, put
it in a plane and flew $3 million over to Brazil.
A Netherlands fan has had a permanent tattoo in honour of
his country's performance at the World Cup in Brazil. The
tattoo includes coach Louis van Gaal and captain Robin
van Persie placed on his back.
During the final Group D dead rubber with Costa Rica,
England’s fans were supporting the team with a
MasterCard-style banner: Flights to Rio - £1,200; Enjoying
the ambience - £2,000; Accommodation - £2,000;
Arriving after elimination - Priceless."
The Union Berlin football club stadium turned into a giant
living room for the World Cup. The club invited people to
bring their own sofas to the stadium to watch the game
together on a 700-inch screen. Around 12,000 fans
attended the first game of the World Cup between the host
nation and Croatia, around 3,000 watching on sofas.

Overall, it was said that the ceremony must not spoil
the grass on the football field.

closing seconds of extra time.
COLOMBIA
As the Colombian team played in the World Cup, fans
turned to Twitter to engage with the nation in support of
their team. The hashtag #Contigomiseleccion

WHAT’S
HAPPENING?
South Korean newscaster Jang Ye Won became the
latest World Cup sensation after a news clip of her
covering the Spain v Chile match went viral.
According to a study done by the Adobe Digital Index,
the Asia Pacific region is producing 48% of the social
buzz around the World Cup. Japan is leading the way
with 37% of World Cup mentions.
Weibo has introduced real-time branding during the 2014
FIFA World Cup. Brands are responsible for their own
social media scores where Chinese netizens need only
enjoy or disapprove of the brands’ reactions to daily
matches.
As one of the world’s most expensive places to watch the
World Cup at home, this year’s event has brought out the
community spirit in Singapore. Thousands of Singaporeans
are gathering in venues that broadcast the matches free,
staying until the early hours of the morning.
Japanese fans were named the most courteous as
reports surface that the Japanese are the only ones to
clean up after themselves at the end of matches, even
despite losing. Their actions have earned the respect of
many worldwide.
