The 20th FIFA World Cup begins on June 12th, and FIFA has now added a new feature to its official website called "Global Stadium", where smartphone-wielding football fans will have access to real-time content of each of the 64 matches, while they will also be able to communicate with other fans, players and coaches around the globe.

Through 'Global Stadium', fans and football supporters will have the chance to win the official kick-off ball of the match they follow, and vote for their 'Man of the Match', honouring the best-performing player (or players) of the game.

Walter De Gregorio, FIFA Director of Communications & Public Affairs, explained: “We aim to provide an all-round digital companion so that billions of fans can join in and share their excitement. Only the World Cup and digital can create this worldwide conversation.”

It seems that football fans around the world who wish to follow the World Cup will have no shortage of digital platforms to communicate; and previous experiences of real-time communication during global sports events, like the London Olympics 2012 or the latest Super Bowl, guarantee that every social-minded small business or major corporation will not spare the chance to take part in this chatter!
Stay tuned!
