Embrace have been chosen to record England's official World Cup song.

The rock band will record track World At Your Feet in an attempt to repeat New Order's 1990 success with World In Motion.

FA marketing manager Tom Harold explained: "The official World Cup song has become something of an institution and it is really important that we have an original and exciting track. We're confident that Embrace's song will capture the imagination of the fans and players alike."

The World Cup contest starts on May 9 in Germany.
