One of the biggest games in sports gaming is FIFA 14. The annual soccer game has a huge following internationally with games played by millions online around the world. Of all the sports games, FIFA 14 is probably one of the most competitive as users go to great lengths to win their games against each other and/or the CPU. Hopefully you do not own a Xbox One while playing FIFA as you will probably be without your Skype capabilities for a couple of days from the passion you will play this with and, if you're me, the total lack of skill you play with.
While the competition is fast and furious online, there has to be a way to see who the best FIFA 14 online player is, right? One player above all others. Well for those of you who believe that you are the best, there is a way to prove your dominance. ESPN FC, Virgin Gaming and EA Sports are joining forces to put on the FIFA 14/ESPN FC Champions Cup. The tournament will feature competitors from the US, Canada, UK, Germany, Spain, France, Brazil and Latin America. Soccer fans of FIFA 14 on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 will all have the opportunity to participate in the tournament, which will have different stages of qualifying.
Players who are interested in the Champions Cup can sign up for the ESPN FC Champions Cup by going to the Virgin Gaming/ESPN FC website. The tournament will select the top two competitors for both consoles, who will travel to Bristol, Connecticut to the headquarters of ESPN. Once on the grounds of the worldwide leader of sports, the participants will compete live on ESPN FC, the new ESPN daily soccer program, for the grand prize of $2,500.
Before we get to the end of the tournament, the qualifying are now in full effect. For the next four weeks, every game of FIFA 14 played in the EA Sports Arena will count towards to the leaderboard rankings. There are four ways players can get to the top of the leaderboard with each week having a separate competitions and leaderboards.

Week 2: December 23-29- Most Wins
Week 3: January 6-12- Most Goals Scored

The top four users from each of the four leaderboards will meet in the Sweet Sixteen of the ESPN FC Champions Cup and engage in three-rounds, single elimination style games leading up to the finals on February 5th at the ESPN headquarters. That final match will pit the top PS3 player against the top Xbox 360 player against one another to find the best of the best. Tournament progress can be tracked through the social media sites for ESPN FC, EA Sports and Virgin Gaming.
In addition to playing the deciding match on television and the winner receiving $2,500, there is more to the trip. Of course the trip is all paid for by ESPN, round-trip airfare and accommodations. In addition, the two payers will receive spending money for the trip and they will receive a behind the scenes tour of ESPN while they are there. For the other 14 players who were good enough to make the final 16 group, they will receive a custom ESPN FC Champions Cup Prize Pack. It's not $2,500 but it is something.
