The world-wide game

World Cup fever has hit Australia following the Socceroos’ historic victory against Japan last Sunday. If you’ve jumped on the bandwagon late, never mind, all the resources are at your fingertips to ensure you can talk the talk with the rest of the world.
The official website of the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, with latest headlines, match results and statistics on teams and players is at www.fifaworldcup.com.
Australian broadcaster SBS continues its dedication to world football with its website covering club competitions from across the world and, of course, the World Cup itself at www.theworldgame.com.au. This is a good unofficial source for football news from a reliable and committed broadcaster.
Of course, no World Cup would be complete without the odd comical jab at the opposition. After Japan’s eleventh hour defeat to the Socceroos, the internet became the stage for such comic relief. For a light-hearted ribbing go to http://japan.justgotowned.com.
