The word FIFA stands for ‘Fédération Internationale de Football Association’. FIFA world cup started in 1930. It was not help in 1942 and 1946 because of World War – II. The Championship has been awarded every 4 years since 1930.

The qualification phase of the present structure determines which teams advance to the tournament phase, and it occurs over the previous three years. 32 teams fight for the championship over the course of around a month in the tournament phase at locations in the host nation or nations. The host country(ies) are eligible by default.

Germany and Italy are the other World Cup champions, each with four championships; Argentina, France, and Uruguay, first-place finisher, each with two titles; and England and Spain, each with one trophy.
