World Cup Links

To further advance everyone's enjoyment of the World Cup, I've provided some very helpful links... (all from FIFA)

Team world cup stats - goals, shots, shot positions, attacking, defending, passes, passes length, total distance ran, and top speeds!

Individual world cup stats - goals, shots, shot positions, attacking, defending, passes, passes length, total distance ran, and top speeds! (same as for each team)

Castrol Index Rating (for individuals) - Castrol uses some complex computer rating system. I have no idea how accurate it is, but feel free to take a look (you can only sort by match as of now).

Extensive analysis and formation breakdowns - Thanks to Mighty for finding this website. Most of this is over my head, but if you are trying to learn more about formations and the strategies involved, take a look here for superb, in-depth analysis.
