Classic Cup Finals: 1923\n\nTheFA.com takes a look back at the historic match which saw the first ever win for Bolton Wanderers in the first of our new series of 'Classic Cup Finals'...\n\n\nBolton Wanderers\n 2-0\n West Ham United\n \nJack 2 \nJR Smith 53\n  \n  \n \n\n\nThe FA Cup Final \nEmpire Stadium, Wembley \nSaturday 20 April 1923\n\nThe first Final at the new stadium at Wembley, played on 28 April 1923, was amrked by disorderly scenes unparalleled in the history of the game. Before the match a crowd of 100,000 outside the stadium rushed the gates, burst the barriers and swarmed onto the field of play. In all about 200,000 people - a record football crowd - squeezed into a space supposed to accomodate 127,000.\n\nThe stadium had been completed in 300 working days at a cost of £750,000. The workmen had made use of 25,000 tons of concrete, 1500 tons of steel and half a million rivets.\n\nBut for the anger of the mob of 200,000 people, and the presence of King George V in the Royal Box, the match would probably been called off. Although it took three-quarters of an hour after the time fixed fior the start of the match for mounted police to clear the pitch, it was virtually impossible to observe the rules of the game. When a player took a corner kick, for example, the crowd were so close up to the touchline that he could not take his run until policemen had forced people away from the corner of the field. \n\nBolton won the match 2-0 and took the Cup for the first time, after two previous appearances in the Final. The first Wembley goal came only two minutes after the delayed start, and David Jack, Bolton's inside-right, was the scorer.\n \nJack leter played in three more finals, one for Bolton and two for Arsenal. He was also the first player for whom a transfer fee of £10,000 was paid. It is said that, while he was shooting into the West Ham net in the 1923 Final, one of the West Ham defenders, Tresadern, was struggling to get back on to the pitch after finding himself the wrong side of part of the crowd on the touch-line.\n\nWhen half-time came, neither side left the field, and eight minutes after the interval Bolton scored a second. JR Smith, Bolton's centre-forward and the only Scotsman in the match, took a beautiful pass from Vizard on his left and shot home past a perplexed Hufton. The ball rebounded into play so swiftly that few had realised he had scored.\n\nBolton Wanderers: Pym; Haworth, Finney; Nuttall, Seddon, Jennings; Butler, Jack, JR Smith, J Smith, Vizard \n\nWest Ham United: Hufton; Henderson, Young; Bishop, Kay, Tresadem; Richards, Brown, V Watson, Moore, Ruffell \n\nReferee: DH Asson (West Bromwich)

1930 Uruguay. They reached the semi-finals after beating Belgium and Paraguay in the first round proper, which was played in group format with 3 teams per group and 1 going through. (3-0 in both games)\nThey were beaten 6-1 by Argentina in the Semis.\n\nThey never appeared again until 1950 in Brazil when they famously beat England 1-0. Some say they beat England because their team was full of Scots.\n\nHowever it was never called the "FIFA" world cup until after 1970 when Brazil kept the old "Jules Rimet" trophy after winning it for a 3rd time.\nThey first appeared under "FIFA" at Italy in 1990 where they were soundly gubbed.

The first FIFA World Cup was in 1930 in Uruguay. Argentina, Chile, France, Mexico, Yugoslavia, Brazil, Bolivia, Romania, Peru, Uruguay, Belgium, USA, and Paraguay participating in the first World Cup. Uruguay was down 2-1 at the break, but in the second half Uruguay brought out the famous claw. Within minutes, Pedro Cea tied the game, and shortly thereafter "El Mago" Scarone put the Uruguayans ahead 3-2. Then in the 88th minute, with the Argentines looking desperately for the equalizer, "El Manco" Castro dealt the finishing blow, ending the scoring 4-2. Uruguay was the first ever World Champion.

In Turin in 1909, in what is sometimes described as The First World Cup, Sir Thomas Lipton organised a football tournament to contest the Sir Thomas Lipton Trophy. Italy, Germany and Switzerland sent their most prestigious professional club sides to the competition but The Football Association of England refused to be associated with it and declined the offer to send a team. Not wishing to have Britain unrepresented in the competition, Lipton invited West Auckland FC, an amateur side from the north-east of England and mostly made up of coal miners, to take part. West Auckland won the tournament and returned to Italy in 1911 to defend their title. In the second competition West Auckland beat Juventus 6-1 in the final and were awarded the trophy outright. In the Olympic games of 1924 and 1928, Uruguay won the football gold medal, in what was considered a proto-world cup. Unofficialy, FIFA recognized Uruguay as World Champion. These victories led the FIFA to choose Uruguay as the home of the first FIFA sanctioned World Cup.

The first winner of this coveted tournament was Uruguay. \n\nThis cup was permanently awarded in 1970 to Brazil the great football-playing nation and the winner of five-world-cup (1958, 1962,1970, 1994, 2002) and a new trophy called the FIFA World Cup was put up for competition. (West Germany) was the first winner of the new trophy, FIFA world cup in 1974.
