    The History of the FIFA World Cup (From: http://www.fifa.com/classicfootball/history/fifa-world-cup/)

    A group of visionary French football administrators,

    led in the 1920s by the innovative Jules Rimet, are

    credited with the original idea of bringing the

    world's strongest national football teams together

    to compete for the title of World Champions. The

    original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and

    was contested three times in the 1930s, before the

    Second World War put a 12-year stop to the

    competition.

    When it resumed, the FIFA World Cup rapidly advanced to its undisputed status as the

    greatest single sporting event of the modern world. Held since 1958 alternately in Europe and

    the Americas, the World Cup broke new ground with the Executive Committee's decision in

    May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as co-hosts for the 2002 edition.

    Since 1930, the 16 tournaments have seen only seven different winners. However, the FIFA

    World Cup has also been punctuated by dramatic upsets that have helped create

    footballing history - the United States defeating England in 1950, North Korea's defeat of Italy

    in 1966, Cameroon's emergence in the 1980s and their opening match defeat of the

    Argentinean cup-holders in 1990....

    Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its spell. An accumulated

    audience of over 37 billion people watched the France 98 tournament, including

    approximately 1.3 billion for the final alone, while over 2.7 million people flocked to watch the

    64 matches in the French stadia.

    After all these years and so many changes, however, the main focus of the FIFA World Cup

    remains the same - the glistening golden trophy, which is the embodiment of every

    footballer's ambition.

    1. A group of football administrators are credited with the original idea

    of bringing the world's strongest football teams together to compete

    for the title of World Champions.

    2. Korea and Japan were not co-hosts for the 2002 edition.

    3. Since 1930, the 18 tournaments have seen only eight different

    winners.

    4. Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its

    spell.

    5. After all these years and so many changes the main focus of the FIFA

    World Cup remains the same.
