Default Re: World Cup Fever

Still incorrect. Brazil won the 1954 World Cup in Sweden. But yes, all the other times the WC has been in Europe, a European team has won. All the times its been in the Americas a South American team has won.

Still incorrect...

Brazil won the WC in Sweden in 1958. Pele's first WC! He was a 17YO and scored twice in the 5-2 victory over host nation Sweden.

West Germany won the 1954 WC which was held in Switzerland 3-2 over Hungary after being down 2-0 to great Puskas and scoring the winner late in the game.
