A popular Australian tourist island has changed its name to Wallaby Island for the duration of the World Cup.
Kangaroo Island, off South Australia, changed the name in a bid to cash in on tourism flowing from the cup.
"The concept of Wallaby Island helps us get behind our Australian team as they seek to win the World Cup again," said South Australian Tourism Minister Jane Lomax-Smith.
South Australia will host two cup games in Adelaide.
