The Football App Scores $7M Led By Union Square Ventures As It Preps For World Cup 2014

THE Football AppThere's big money in football (or "soccer" as some TC readers like to say). And so it follows that there's money to be made in corresponding apps that let fans engross themselves with the beautiful game.To that end, Berlin-headquartered The Football App has raised a further round of funding: $7 million led by New York-based Union Square Ventures (previous backer of big hits such as Twitter, Tumblr, Zynga, and Kickstarter), along with a number of unnamed angels. This adds to the $10 million it previously raised back in May in a round led by Berlin's Earlybird Venture Capital. That's a lot of funding in quite a short amount of time.
