World Cup Football News: August 2005 In the eyes of those fanatical 'Red Devils', however, a FIFA World Cup finals place is the least they expect and their confidence in the national team has been dented by some disappointing qualifying results, including the goalless draw against the Maldives that cost Coelho his job, and last week's setback against the Saudis.

Football World Cup 1950 Biography,info For some time, the World Cup was at risk of not being held for sheer lack of interest from the international community, until Brazil presented a bid at the 1946 FIFA conference in Luxembourg offering to host the event on condition that the tournament take place in 1950. The 1950 Football World Cup was the only World Cup ever held which was not decided by a knockout final (although the last match of the tournament did end up determining the overall winner, and this match, also known as Maracanazo, is usually referred to as if it had been a final). Because of World War II, the World Cup had not been staged since 1938; the planned World Cups of 1942 and 1946 were both cancelled. 70.85.24.245 /biography/sdmc_Football_World_Cup_1950   (904 words)
