IT’S THE (SEMI) FINAL COUNTDOWN

World Cup fever has gripped the nation – do your bit and support the team in style

It’s coming home, it’s coming home, it’s coming! Football’s coming… sorry, I got a bit carried away there. But why shouldn’t we? It’s the England team’s first semi-final since Gazza’s tearjerker in 1990 so it’s worth making a fuss. If, like us, you’re right behind the boys in Russia, you’ll want to support them in the appropriate fashion. Pre-match preparation should include stocking up on Suffolk-brewed beers and our Best Ever Burger or meat-free sausages to fuel 90-plus minutes of cheering, while donning your England T-shirt and socks. And if you’ve been admiring manager Gareth Southgate’s winning waistcoat, you’re in the right place – M&S is the official tailor to the England team. When the final whistle goes tonight and England are in the final (fingers crossed), put on an incredible spread for Sunday’s World Cup final with minimum fuss with our pick of the squad-pleasing Food to Order offering.
