During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China, there was a "football" game in Linzi, the ancient capital of Qi, which was called "Cuju" at that time. Modern football originated in England and then swept the world. Due to the rapid development of football, international competitions have also appeared. 1896 When the Athens Olympic Games was held, football was listed as an official event. Denmark beat Greece 9-0 and became the first football champion in the Olympic Games. Because professional athletes are not allowed to participate in the Olympic Games, the football match will not last until the 1928 Amsterdam Olympic Games. 1928 After the Olympic Games, FIFA held a representative meeting and unanimously adopted the resolution to hold the World Football Championship every four years. This has played a positive role in promoting the further development and improvement of world football. At first, this new football game was called "World Football Championship". 1956, FIFA decided to change its name to "Rimet Cup" at its meeting in Luxemburg. This is in recognition of Rimet, a Frenchman and former FIFA president, for his achievements in football. Rimet has been the president of FIFA for 33 years (192 1- 1954), and is the initiator and organizer of the World Football Championship. Later, it was suggested that the two names be linked, called "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup". Therefore, the Helsinki Conference decided to change its name to "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup" or "World Cup" for short.

The final was played between Italy and Hungary, and Italy won the championship with a score of 4-2. Italy also became the first team to win the World Cup. Brazil, Uruguay, Spain and Sweden entered the semi-finals after the first round of group round robin in the 4th World Cup in Brazil (1950), so they need to decide the champion by round robin again.

Germany last hosted the World Cup in 1974. After Zidane's comeback, the performance of the French team exceeded people's expectations. Of course, due to his influence, he also brought some veterans (Fabian fabien barthez, etc. Who is not at the peak? What is even more unexpected is that the Italian team, with its strong cohesion and chain defense, unexpectedly reached the final and finally won the cup. In this World Cup, the top four teams are European teams, while Asian and African teams are not performing well. In the end, Italy beat France on penalties and won the championship. Zidane shocked the world when he was sent off for headbutting Italian defender Materazzi in the second half of extra time.
