Following on from my last post (Bing’s Brilliant Football Facts part 1) we have so far seen some of the great high’s and low’s in this years long-awaited World Cup. Not only has there been some great goals, slight upsets and top highlights of the tournament, but there has been some fantastic content around the event and this includes superb content from Bing.

For those of you that do not yet know, here are some new additional features Bing has released:
