Using social networks VS. World Cup


The social network sites can provide a lot of information and insights. Those insights are fun to read, especially when those insights come from famous people who have many curious fans. During the World Cup there are quite a lot of those curious fans who want to know everything about the team that they support.

According to del Bosque, the coach from the Spanish squad, the players share often too much information and that is why he have forbidden the players to make use of Facebook and Twitter during the World Cup. That it could create problems have been proven by a Dutch player who used Twitter to share that he was enjoying a hip hop concert while he was too injured to join the Dutch team.

The fuss that was created by this moment of honesty and openness is not something that teams can use during the World Cup. Although it could be interesting to read what is going on during the training I think it is smart for the players to focus at one thing…and that is winning that golden cup!
