Twitter is a place where people are always chatting and with the start of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, the World Cup Twitter sports talk will be absolutely nonstop. Fortunately for soccer fans, the social network made a few changes to its website and mobile app to make it easier to get news on the games.
While the matches are ongoing, Twitter currently has a feature that will let you pick a favorite team unlock custom features, such as alerts on all of that team's news. There's also a dedicated World Cup hub on Twitter that keeps fans up to speed on all the latest action.
As well, a search for a hashtag like #BRAvsCRO will bring up a page loaded with tweets about the Brazil vs. Croatia match, including information about team lineup and when the match will start.
