FotMob
If you are looking for an app to keep track of all your favourite teams in regular non-FIFA leagues, FotMob is a good choice. When opening the app for the first time, it will tell you to choose the teams and players you want to follow. Afterwards, in the app’s ‘Following’ tab, you can easily keep track of your favourite teams and players, including when their next match is, for which league and versus whom. For the ongoing FIFA tournament specifically, the main menu of FotMob shows live updates of the score and information on upcoming matches.
SofaScore
SofaScore is a preferred app for checking updates on all sorts of sports, including but not limited to football, cricket, tennis, basketball, volleyball and even esports. When opening the app, you will be asked to choose the sports you want to follow, after which you can receive a variety of information regarding the games you want to follow. You can also pin the leagues you personally prefer so they appear on the app’s main menu. There’s also an in-progress tournaments section in SofaScore that keeps tracks of many relevant national and international sporting events. As for FIFA, aside from checking live scores, you can also check the app’s power rankings and fan ratings for the ongoing tournament.
