Did You Know?

Pelé is the only footballer in the world to win FIFA World Cup three times as a player, in 1958, 1962 and 1970.

West Indian cricketer Sir Viv Richards is the only man to have participated in both cricket and football World Cups. He was part of Antigua's squad in the 1974 World Cup.

Dr Ottorino Barassi, Italian vice president of FIFA during World War II, hid the FIFA World Cup trophy under his bed throughout the war, producing it again only before the 1950 World Cup. Thus he saved the trophy from being seized by the Nazi troops.
