What are the three major upsets in the history of the World Cup?

1. Self-righteous Englishman

After the French Rimet founded the World Cup, the English people held themselves as the originator of modern football, sneered at it and adopted an attitude of * * in the first three competitions.

With the expansion of the influence of the World Cup, in 195, the fourth World Cup was held in Brazil. Unable to resist the temptation, England began to send teams to participate in the competition, and they were divided into the second group together with the American team.

The United States is a country that advocates basketball, ice hockey and rugby, and football is only an affiliated sport.

From 1934 to this time when they met the English team, they played only nine games in 16 years.

Nevertheless, the United States won 1-, which put the proud England team in shame and failed to qualify for the group.

The media in England are even more narcissistic. After losing : 1 to the United States, the manuscript was sent to Britain, but the editor in the rear thought that the reporter had made a mistake, so he changed the : 1 to England's 1: 1 victory over the United States, which became the biggest joke in the history of the World Cup.

2. Respectable North Koreans

In the 1966 World Cup in England, the North Korean team lost to the former Soviet Union -3 and Chile 1-1 in the first two group matches, and the final match will face Italy, an old powerhouse.

knowing that there was no hope of qualifying, the North Korean team withdrew their rooms, booked their air tickets and prepared to go straight to the airport to return home after the game.

However, North Korea, which laid down its burden, beat Italy 1- with the goal of Park Doo-yi, the core player at that time, and successfully qualified for the quarter-finals.

In the quarter-finals, the miracle continued. They scored three goals in 25 minutes, leading Portugal 3-.

But then "Panther" Eusébio scored four goals by himself, and completed the reversal by himself, making the blackest dark horse in almost all previous World Cups out.

North Korea's best record in the World Cup quarter-finals in Asia was maintained for 36 years, and it was not until 22 that South Korea broke it with the advantage of home court. Coincidentally, it also entered the quarter-finals by stepping on the bodies of Italians.

Third, the pride of black Africa

In the opening match of the World Cup in Italy in 199, Cameroon defeated the defending champion Argentina led by Diego Maradona 1-, which surprised most people, and thus Cameroon won the reputation of "African Lion".

The 38-year-old "Uncle Mira" shined brilliantly in that cup, winning two yuan against Romania, helping the team to win 2-1, successfully qualifying from the group, and playing with Colombian crazy goalkeeper Yi Jita in the quarter-finals to advance to the quarter-finals.

In the quarter-final, they lost to England 2-3 in overtime, and failed to go any further. However, their excellent performance made the world football begin to notice the rise of African power.

The United States, Britain, North Korea, Italy, Cameroon and Argentina, the three most famous unpopular manufacturers, have all gathered in South Africa, which is a miracle in itself. What other unpopular products will be created that will still be worth talking about years later?
