How did it originate during the World Cup?

Due to the rapid development of football, international competitions have also appeared. 1896 When the Athens Olympic Games was held, football was listed as an official event. Denmark beat Greece 9-0 and became the first football champion in the Olympic Games. Because professional athletes are not allowed to participate in the Olympic Games, the football match will not last until the 1928 Amsterdam Olympic Games.

1928 After the Olympic Games, FIFA held a representative meeting and unanimously adopted the resolution to hold the World Football Championship every four years. This has played a positive role in promoting the further development and improvement of world football. At first, this new football game was called "World Football Championship". 1956, FIFA decided to change its name to "Rimet Cup" at its meeting in Luxemburg. This is in recognition of Rimet, a Frenchman and former FIFA president, for his achievements in football. Rimet has been the president of FIFA for 33 years (192 1- 1954), and is the initiator and organizer of the World Football Championship. Later, it was suggested that the two names be linked, called "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup". Therefore, the Helsinki Conference decided to change its name to "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup" or "World Cup" for short.
