World Cup Winners list: which teams have won each year

List of FIFA World Cup champions since the tournament began in 1930:

URUGUAY 1930 - URUGUAY

* Uruguay won the inaugural FIFA World Cup after beating Argentina 4-2 in the final in Montevideo.

* The first tournament included 13 teams, with only four from Europe. The trip to South America was challenging for many European players because they feared losing their jobs after being absent for a long time.

ITALY 1934 - ITALY

* Hosts Italy defeated Czechoslovakia 2-1 in Rome in a tournament consisting of a Round of 16.

* Reigning World Cup holders Uruguay declined to participate as a protest to the refusal of several European countries to travel to South America for the previous World Cup. At the same time, Egypt became the first African country to participate.

FRANCE 1938 - ITALY

* Italy took their second trophy, beating Hungary 4-2 in the final.

* Dutch East Indies, present-day Indonesia, became the first Asian team to participate in the World Cup.

BRAZIL 1950 - URUGUAY

* The first World Cup after World War Two, where England made their debut. Uruguay took their second victory after a 2-1 win against host nation Brazil in a game that later became known as "Maracanaco".

* With 173,850 spectators, the game is still the highest-attended game ever played.

SWITZERLAND 1954 - GERMANY

* West Germany took their first title after a 3-2 win in the final against Hungary.

SWEDEN 1958 - BRAZIL

* The only tournament in a Nordic country saw the debut of a 17-year-old Brazilian player named Pele, who scored six goals and helped his team to beat Sweden 5-2 in the final.

* France's Just Fontaine scored 13 goals in the tournament, still a record.

CHILE 1962 - BRAZIL

* Brazil defended their title in a 3-1 victory over Czechoslovakia in the final in Santiago.
