"Cricinfo" for football

The football World Cup (yes, after the realization in my previous post, I've decided not to call it soccer any longer) is just a week away, but I feel I'm hardly into the thick of things. Other than all the hype about Rooney's metatarsal, I have read pretty much nothing related to the World Cup in the past week. This clearly shows I need to look out for new sources of information. Google News is filled with too much crap about MLB's regular season.

So, is there any good site out there for keeping track of news related to the football World Cup? Thanks.

seems to be a reasonable option...though judgement can be made only when the tournament starts i guess...

Before the tournament begins, everyone is looking to read up about the composition of all teams and the star players to watch out for. The official FIFA site neither has descriptions of each player nor does it have snaps of the players (except for some strange reason the Saudi Arabian team!). In that regard, even Rediff's World Cup page is better. The World Cup site on ESPN is also decent for news.
