World Cup: A trip through history

The 2010 World Cup hosted by South Africa will sadly be coming to an end this Sunday July 11th 2010. The two remaining teams are Spain and Netherlands both teams who have never won the world cup since 1930. Now I was in debate with one of my best friends about whether Spain had ever won or not, and she believed they had. Like the person that I am, I had to go research it out of curiosity to see if in fact they ever did win, they did not. And as I was searching I found myself searching other world cup wins and ended up with a 19 event time line! Here you go guys, from the first world cup till now every winning team and country that hosted the world cup from the 1930s. Surprisingly very interesting!

It is really interesting, and even though I wasn't cheering for Spain initially I may just cheer for them on Sunday! :) You live in Switzerland? That's really cool I've always wanted to go :)
