Pay attention to the advertisement boards around the field:

1) Coca-Cola (Beverage)
2) Yahoo (Online Search Portal)
3) Mc Donald’s (Quick Service Restaurant)
4) Gillette (unit of Procter & Gamble, Personal and Household care)
5) Master Card (Payment Service Povider)
6) Bud (Budweiser – Anheuser-Busch, Beer)
7) Avaya (Network Communication)

B) Germany:
1) Adidas (Textile, Foot ware & Accessories)
2) Post Bank (Financial)
3) T-Mobile (Subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, Mobile phone operator)
4) Continental (Automobile parts)
5) OBI (Home Improvement Store)
6) DB (Deutsche-Bahn) (Railway operator)

C) The Netherlands:
1) Philips (Electronics)

D) Japan:

UAE is the only country that not qualified in the FIFA World Cup 2006. A next darling star or just an oil price boom illusion? Like in equity market, is a company stock’s price increase because of its fundamental values or just a play of the syndicate? Time will tell you the story…..
