We kick off this list with the first-ever World Cup final, which took place in 1930. The inaugural World Cup final saw host nation Uruguay come from behind to defeat Argentina 4-2 in a thrilling match. This victory in Montevideo ignited Uruguay's love affair with the World Cup, which continues to this day.
Brazil's second consecutive World Cup win, spearheaded by Garrincha in Pele's injury absence, was a truly thrilling spectacle. Brazil won 3-1 against Czechoslovakia, cementing their status as the world's footballing powerhouse, all without the presence of their star player.
As well as the controversy and confusion surrounding Ronaldo's inclusion, this final is remembered as the night when Zinedine Zidane, one of the greatest footballers ever, rose to the occasion, scoring two headers in a 3-0 victory for the French side. The win gave France their first World Cup title as the hosts of the tournament, defeating the comp...
The final in Brazil saw a solitary goal by German substitute and wonderkid Mario Götze in extra time to clinch the victory for Germany. The match was noted for its tactical battle and was decided by a moment of brilliance from Götze, who unfortunately didn't live up to the hype that this moment suggested he could. Lionel Messi's moment to declare h...
Another final between Germany and Argentina, and a rematch from the final final four years prior, and it was the Germans who emerged victorious once again. A penalty converted by Andreas Brehme was all that could separate the sides in a hotly-contested affair, giving West Germany a 1-0 win and their third World Cup title, the last before the countr...
The World Cup final in 1952 was the beginning of Brazil's reign in international football. An exceptional team led by a 17-year-old Pele, the youngest-ever finalist, defeated Sweden 5-2. Pele's performance was outstanding, scoring twice and showcasing the world-class talent that would come to define his illustrious career.
Few World Cup finals have ever been as dramatic as this. Italy won in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in regular and extra time, but the game is perhaps best remembered for Zinedine Zidane's panenka penalty and shocking headbutt on Marco Materazzi, which led to Zizou getting sent off. It was a dramatic end to a fantastic World Cup, and also Zid...
Host nation Argentina defeated the Netherlands 3-1 after extra time in a pulsating final in Buenos Aires. Mario Kempes stood out with his two goals, ensuring the World Cup remained in South America, much to the delight of the home crowd.
England's only victory at the World Cup finals came at Wembley where hosts England triumphed over Germany 4-2 after extra time in 1966. Geoff Hurst’s hat trick, the first in a World Cup final, which was only matched by Kylian Mbappe last year, sealed the victory for the Three Lions. A truly fantastic day for England fans.
Regarded by many as the greatest World Cup team ever, Brazil's 1970 squad blew away the competition with some truly exceptional play. The final against Italy ended 4-1, bookmarked by Pele’s opening goal and Carlos Alberto's famous late strike. The game showcased samba-style football at its best, proving just how dominant Brazil were at the time.
