event in the world. The World Cup is followed with
passionate interest around the globe – the final game of the
2002 World Cup tournament attracted more than one billion
viewers.
2. In 1904, FIFA, the governing body for football, was set up.
At its first meeting, FIFA planned to organize a world
championship. Bt it was not until 1930 that the first World
Cup was held. Only 13 teams took part in the first
tournament. The host nation, Uruguay, gained a victory over
Argentina in the final and became the first champion in the
history of the World Cup. By 2002, the world had witnessed
17 World Cup tournaments. National football teams must
now compete within their own regions before becoming one
of the 32 finalists.
3. The 2002 World Cup final was jointly held by Japan and
South Korea. It was the first time the World Cup was played
in Asia and the first time it was hosted by two nations. With
the victory over Germany in the final match, Brazil became
the first team to win the trophy five times. Although Europe
and South America are the only continents to have produced
World Cup champions, countries on other continents hope
that one day they will win the honoured title.
