Russel Beattie has posted on his weblog about the launch of Yahoo!'s official Fifa 2006 World Cup WAP site.

There's also a custom downloadable app coming, SMS alerts and more - check out the FIFA World Cup Mobile page for more details. The mobile web portal in particular has news, photos, customizable team tracking, schedules, live scores during the matches and more. You should be able to keep track of the whole World Cup (which starts in June for my fellow Americans... you know, the soccer thing) right from your phone no matter where you are.

This year's World Cup has a wide range of mobile services available to interested football fans.
