It seems that not only the real players gather for the championship.

Los Angeles played host to a gripping FIFA Interactive World Cup tournament which saw the winner of the Mexican qualifying tournament storm to victory ahead of his US rivals. Ruben Morales travelled all the way from Mexico City to take on the best gamers from all over the USA at the Globe Theatre at Universal Studios and returned home with the title of Champion!

I am a FIFA 2006 player myself and I would love to participate in such a tournament, but the fact is I am no good compared to some people I saw. Anyway, winning World Cup tickets would be enough of an incentive for me to atleast try.

Here is the final in short:

Both players chose the pace and flair of Brazil for the final match and Adriano again proved why he’s one of the best finishers in the game by providing an early goal for Ruben. Shortly afterwards Carlos got in on the act to make the score 2-0 and leave Filip with a mountain to climb to remain in the game. However, despite his best efforts, Ruben eased to victory and secured his place in the Grand Final.
