Despite the complaints presented by the Ssouth Americans, in 1938 the FIFA organized the football world cup in France, in an attempt to bring a bit of peace to a Europe on the verge of war.
In the final match, all France cheered for Hungary, with the hope that they could beat the
fascist
Italy. But the Italians became the first
two-time champions
with an outright win 4-2. |
