With the World Cup fast approaching, a global audience in the region of 3bn are expecting to tune in to watch their heroes play on the world stage.

Two men trying to capitalise on the Brazil showpiece are Daniel Tannenbaum and Roy Skop who last month launched a fan site for the Belgium World Cup football team.

"We met at a Chabad conference earlier this year," explains Daniel. "We started talking about Belgium's national side and with players like Hazard, Lukaku, Kompany, Vertonghen and Courtois and how they have suddenly emerged as a force in international football.

"I used to be involved with one of Manchester City's top fan sites and it was set up just as City were getting big. I saw this as another gap in the market.
