1930 FIFA World Cup
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| FIFA's decision to hold the first FIFA World Cup in Uruguay did not meet universal acclaim, as Europe was plunged in the midst of an economic crisis. Participation in a FIFA World Cup taking place overseas involved a long sea journey. Moreover, for some clubs it meant having to go without their best players for two months - a problem that is still topical today. The organization of the first FIFA World Cup looked rather different from today's with no qualifying competition, the 13 teams entered by invitation and the final draw was not made until the teams arrived in Uruguay. France met Mexico in the opening match and duly won 4-1, but the first final was contested by the hosts and their neighbors Argentina. After trailing 2-1 at the interval, Uruguay went on to prevail 4-2 and thus won the cup which had been designed by French sculptor Abel Lafleur. The first FIFA World Cup, the first football legends Although football was officially born in 1904 with the founding of FIFA, it was not until 1924 and the Olympic tournament in Paris that the international game really came into its own. There for the first time, teams from other continents arrived to take on the Europeans. The tournament was an unmitigated success: 50,000 spectators watched Uruguay beat Switzerland in the final. In 1928 however, when many nations abstained from the Olympic tournament in Amsterdam, the time was obviously ripe for a new independent football tournament to be established especially in view of the growth of professional football. On 26 May 1928 in Amsterdam, the FIFA congress voted that a new tournament was to be organized in 1930 which was to be open to all member nations. On 18 May 1929, the Barcelona congress voted that Uruguay should be the first nation to host a FIFA World Cup. Seafaring footballers As holders of the Olympic title and the fact that 1930 marked its 100 years of independence it was appropriate to choose Uruguay to host the first tournament. Although the news was greeted enthusiastically in all football-playing countries, many European nations harbored reservations about the prospect of crossing the Atlantic, a journey which promised to be long, tiring and costly. Thus, more and more European associations broke their promise to participate. Two months before the tournament was due to commence not a single European country had entered the competition. Thanks to Rimet's personal efforts, at least four delegations, Belgium, France, Yugoslavia and Romania, set sail on 21 June 1930 from Villefranche-Sur-Mer with the liner "Conte Verde" reaching Rio de Janeiro on 29 June, where they picked up the Brazilian squad and arrived in Montevideo on 4 July. A tremendous sporting success The first FIFA World Cup only attracted 13 nations, including four Europeans, eight from South America and a representative team from the United States. On the field of play however, the quality of football produced was of the highest standard. And whilst the public had expected to see a South American domination, the four teams from Europe did more than hold their own as typified by the French team, beating Mexico 4 - 1 and going down narrowly to Argentina 1 - 0 in an epic struggle. The referee, who had blown the final whistle six minutes early, finally - after fierce protests - recalled the players to the field, some of whom were already in the shower! First final, first legend A few days later in the colossal Centenario stadium (100,000 capacity), the atmosphere was electric as spectators were awaiting the South American final between Uruguay and Argentina. At half-time, Uruguay were down 2-1, but fought back bravely and put three second half goals passed the stunned Argentineans, ending the game with a 4-2 victory. The FIFA President Jules Rimet presented the " Victoire aux Ailes d'Or " trophy, a statuette 30cm high, made of gold and weighing 4 kg, to the Uruguayan captain José Nazassi. Celebrations in Montevideo went on for several days and nights and the day after the famous victory, the 31 July, was proclaimed a national holiday. The ball had begun to roll for football's most prestigious prize and the universal nature of the game had been officially proclaimed! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

World Cup in Chile 1962
According to the unwritten rule of organizing the tournament alternately in Europe and in America, hosting the VII World Cup went to Chile, which didn't withdraw even faced with huge losses the 1960 earthquake had caused. It was then that the world heard the words of the president of the Chile football federation: "since we have nothing, we will do everything". 51 teams entered the qualifiers. Austria, representing "a rather low level" didn't participate, and teams from France and Sweden (the silver and bronze medallists from 1958) didn't make it through the qualifiers.
The favourites of the games in Chile were the defending champions from Brazil, hopes were also high on teams from Spain, Italy, England and USSR. The group games were heated and very brutal: lots of foul play and expulsions, as well as fights between teams. In the first phase the European teams did much better and 6 of them ended up in the semis. There England was a disappointment again, still with no major success in the World Cup finals. Czechoslovakia qualified and did surprisingly well, beating Hungary and a strong Yugoslavian eleven, to meet with Brazil in the final. It was the second game of these two teams in this tournament, the first one being goalless. This time, as expected, the defending champion defeated these games' sensation, Czechoslovakia, 3:1. Chile and Yugoslavia fought for 3. place and the bronze went to the hosting team.

World Cup in France 1938
The World Cup championship played in France was the last one before World War II and turned out to be the least attended to. Once again the teams of the British Isles and Uruguay didn't enter the qualifiers, Argentina backed out of the competition after the draw, and Austria didn't participate because of its political situation. The team from Yugoslavia that had won the bronze at the championship of 1930 didn't qualify in 1938. The defending champion (Italy) and the hosting team (France) were automatically entered in the competition without a need to participate in the qualifiers. In all, 15 out of 16 qualified teams showed up in France.
The World Cup in France was played in the play-off system. In the first round, after a fierce match and additional time Poland, a first-time player in the cup, lost to Brazil 5:6. In the second phase Brazil put up a fight with Czechoslovakia and won the game, only to lose to Italy, the defending champion, in the semi-finals. Even though the German team was strengthened by Austrian players, it failed to defeat Switzerland. The Hungarians did well, beating strong teams from Switzerland and Sweden on its way to the final game. They were then easily defeated by the favourite team from Italy. The Italians won for the second time and defended their title as World Cup champion. The Brazilian team won 3. place after a 3:1 victory over Sweden.
Top players of the tournament: Domingos, Leônidas, Martim (Brazil), Plánicka (Czechoslovakia), Aston (France), Sárosi (Hungary), Andreolo, Meazza, Piola, (Italy), Wilimowski (Poland).
