World Cup History
The FIFA World Cup is the premier international soccer tournament, first held in Uruguay in 1930. Organized by FIFA, it features teams from around the world competing for the title every four years, except during World War II. The tournament has grown significantly, with the number of participating teams increasing from 13 in the inaugural event to 32 in recent editions.
Over the years, several nations have dominated the competition, with Brazil holding the record for the most titles, having won five times. The tournament has also seen memorable moments, such as Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" goal in 1986 and Zinedine Zidane's stunning performance in 1998.
