History And List of World Cup Winner



The FIFA World Cup also called the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by  members of Federation International  Football Association (FIFA). This phenomenal competition always held every four years, except in 1942 and 1946 when it was not held because of the Second World War.

The first World Cup competition was held in Uruguay in 1930 and won by the hosts and since then there have been some great World Cup competition. Brazil hold the record for the most wins with five having won first in 1958 and most recently in 2002. The last World Cup in 2010 was held in South Africa and Spain became the winner. According to a plan, next World Cups will be hosted by Russia in 2018 and Qatar in 2022. But both choices have been criticized in the media. Russia given the 2014 Crimean crisis and Qatar for allegations of vote-buying.

Bellow, you can see the list of all the winners of the World cup from the very start to the most recent one as we build upto the 2014 World Cup which is taking place in Brazil.
