Fifa World Cups

Hi world,I have another blog for you today and im sure you know from the title that it is about Fifa world cups.So lets get this under way. The first Fifa world cup started in the year 1930 and it was hosted by Uruguay.Ever since the year 1930 there has been a World cup hosted every 4 years by a different country except for two years.In the years 1942 and 1946 there was no world cups hosted by any countries because of the Second World War so after the 1938 world cup there wasn't another world cup until 1950.Besides that, there have been a number of great moments in world cup history especially for Brazil as they are the most successful country winning the tournament 5 times and coming runner up twice with their last win coming in the year 2002 beating Germany 2-0 in Japan.The current winners of the world cup is Spain after winning the 2010 tournament in South Africa with Andres Iniesta scoring the winning goal.The next world cup will be hosted by Brazil in 2014 and so far 32 countries will be participating but there is speculation that it could be boosted to 40 countries.In my opinion the best ever world cup was the 2006 world cup hosted by Germany because the final went all the way to penalties between France and Italy with Italy winning 5-3.There was also a very entertaining moment in the final with legend Zinedine Zidane headbutting Materazzi for a reason I do not know!The link following is just a link to the fifa world cup official website http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/ What is your favourite moment in world cup history?Leave your answer in the comments below and until the next blog,Cya.
