FIFA World Cup

An international association football tournament called the FIFA World Cup was first held in 1930. Men’s national teams from FIFA’s members, the sport’s international governing organization, compete in it. Except for 1942 and 1946, when it was postponed owing to World War II, the tournament has been held every four years. France won the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which was held in Russia, after defeating Croatia 4-2 in the regular-time match. The result of the World Cup final game, which concludes the tournament, determines which nation is crowned world champion. If the result is a tie after 90 minutes of regular play, extra time, which lasts 30 minutes, is added. A penalty shootout is used to determine such a game if it is still deadlocked after extra time. The side that prevails in the penalty shootout is then crowned the winner. Except for 1950, when the tournament victor was selected by a final round-robin group of four teams, the event has always been decided by a single match (Uruguay, Brazil, Sweden, and Spain). The crucial game—and one of the tournament’s last two games—saw Uruguay defeat Brazil 2-1 to put them ahead on points and guarantee their finish atop the group as world champions. FIFA considers this game to be the de facto 1950 World Cup final as a result.
