Every edition of the FIFA World cup saw at least one team from Europe make way into the finals except for the years 1930 and 1950.

If you are a football fan then you can relate to this feeling. Never call “Football” as “Soccer” especially when you are around a football except if you are American or Canadian. Gotcha!

4) Gordan Strachan was a very wise man

Scoring hat-tricks in a football game isn’t that easy. We might be seeing a lot of them in the recent games but during olden days this was such a herculean task. And Gordan Strachan is the only man before 1960 to have ever scored a hat-trick in Football.

5) Ryan Giggs and the Rugby connection
