Wallcharts: Follow The Fifa 2006 World Cup On Paper..No, It's Now Online!

The Fifa 2006 World Cup starts in Germany on 9 June. Billions around the world will
be watching and many will engage in the age-old tradition of using wallcharts to
follow the progress of the teams on paper - and now there is a way to do it online.


Birmingham UK- 22 May, 2006,

The 2006 World Cup Soccer tournament starts on 9 June 2006 in Munich, Germany. The
first game will be between the host nation and Costa Rica.

The tournament will end with the 64th game - the final - on 9th July in Berlin.

This truly is a global tournament, with 14 teams from Europe, 4 teams from
North/Central America and the Caribbean, 4 teams from South America, 5 teams from
Africa, 4 teams from Asia and 1 team from Oceania. All teams have had to qualify
for the tournament, except the hosts Germany. This is the first time in the long
history of the World Cup that the holders have also had to qualify.

The holders are, of course, Brazil, who have appeared in the last 3 World Cup
Finals, winning 2 of them. They also are - by far - the strongest soccer nation in
the World, having won 5 tournaments in all, 2 more than the nation with the
second-best record, Germany. Brazil are the acknowledged masters of the game,
playing the most beautiful soccer in the world. They enter this tournament as one
of the favorites, although the law of averages suggest that they will struggle to
win the competition for the 3rd time in the 4 attempts.

The biggest tournament of the most popular game in the world will be watched by
billions around the globe. And millions of young (and old) boys and girls will be
following an age-old tradition of faithfully tracking the progression of the
tournament on specially-prepared wallcharts. But there\'s an even better way -
Fibonacci, a small British software house have upgraded and re-launched their
brilliant World Cup Online Wallchart, an interactive wallchart that you can use to
track the tournament, create your own "what if" scenarios, play games, collate stats
with a single click and lots more.

When the Fibonacci World Cup Online Wallchart was released for the 2002 Soccer World
Cup it proved to be massively popular - the Guardian newspaper in the UK described
it thus: \"It\'s not quite as thrilling as shouting yourself hoarse on the terraces,
or as moving as feeling the blazing oriental sun drying the inevitable tears of
disappointment as they cascade down your face, but its the next best thing\"

4 years on, it\'s even better; it\'s been improved and upgraded and made even more
interactive - a must for all true soccer fans! For a full review of this brilliant
piece of software, head over to one of the special World Cup blogs listed below:
