Google is going for the goal in its coverage of this year's FIFA World Cup.
Google launched a World Cup website — as a part of its Google Trends section — on Wednesday to make it easier for fans to get the latest stats, player news and live game updates in one spot. Users who now search for "World Cup" or "World Cup USA" in Google will see this data pop up at the top of the results page.
The company is providing users with instant updates and trending topics in a fashion similar to Twitter.
Competing countries' questions, favorite players and even emotions will be front and center.
In addition, Google Now users will have the ability to see match lineups and other information without even having to search.
The web giant previously added Google Street View coverage for fans to see inside and outside the 12 stadiums where the games will take place.
Those who can't make it to the World Cup can take a virtual tour of the ironic painted streets of the region and other notable landmarks.
