Its DEUTSCHLAND.\nThough underrated, the Germans have the tendency to Get Up at the World Cups. With the Likes of Ballack and Podolsky and the Home Crowd Support, they should do it in Style.

The first FIFA World Cup was staged in 1930. The tournament was played in Uruguay, the Olympic champions at the time, since they were celebrating the centenary of their independence. As well as being the first ever hosts, Uruguay also became the inaugural champions, beating Argentina in the final, 4 – 2.

SOCCER IS THE ONLY UNIVERAL SPORT PLAYED ALL OVER THE WORLD. EVEN IN COUNTRIES THAT DON'T HAVE ANY MAJOR SPORTS IN THERE COUNTRIES AND SOCCER IS THEIR PASSION. AND CAUSE IT'S GETTING SOOOOOOO CLOSE TO THE WORLD CUP AND THE FACT THAT THE WORLD CUP IS ONLY EVERY 4 YEARS AND SO MANY GAMES ARE PLAYED DURING THOSE 4 YEARS THAT IT'S ALL WORTH WHAT U PLAYED FOR AND WORKED HARD TO GET THERE.

The most memorable game is the 1966 final between England and West Germany. It is not the English cling to the past, it was the climax of a great competition.\n\nIt start with the theft of the Jules Rimmet Trophy and a replica being made, then that was found by pickles the dog. There were lots of great matchs, Eusebio was amazing, then the hosts reached the final, went one down, came back to lead, the Germans equalised in stopage time sending the final to extra time for the first time ever. Then there was "that goal", and then Geoff Hurst scored the only ever world cup final hatrick.

The FIFA World Cup (Federation Internationale de Football Association) is basically the Super Bowl of soccer. Teams from all over the world travel to compete in competitions to see who is the best. Tickets are very valuable and in high demand. This year the World Cup is being held in various locations throughout Germany. Good Luck... =)

Because the World Cup is a once-in-a-lifetime event to see.  They only have it once every four years and it probably won't be in your country but once in your lifetime.  The passion and intensity is something that is rarely seen in all of sports (except the Olympics) and to see the amount of pride that the players take in their respective nations is astounding.  If only us Americans appreciated soccer more instead of sports like the thuggish NBA or "put me to sleep" MLB that we watch.

For a single sports event, no doubt the Fifa World Cup, held every four years, where the continental champions and the best soccer teams of the world (becuase they earned their right to qualify afrer a tedious qualification process) face off to see who is crowned as the best team of the World after that tournament.

I like the to watch the Superbowl. But there is no question the biggest event in the world is the World Cup. You have nations declaring a national holiday when that country's team plays. There are over 5 Billion people watching the World Cup. \n\nYou can combine the NFL, NBA, World Series and you still will not get half of the billions of people following the World Cup.

football is a form of entretainment that surpases all american sports because of the global reach it has. Just like the Olympics, the world cup uses nationalism to make millions of dollars.. but the most important thing is with football countries dont have to fight a war or kill each other.. they can play this and the whole world can watch\n\nI only watch football when is this big.. I have a favorite club, but I feel a lot more compelled to watch a game for my country rather than my favorite club
