FIFA, which stands for Federation Internationale de Football Association was founded in the year 1904. Today it is known as Football world cup. The competition is held between the national football teams of the countries who are the members of FIFA. The history of the FIFA World Cups till date will be incomplete if Brazil is taken out from it. The matches played by the country have created sensation and have taken the standard of the tournament to a new high. Though the game was started by the English but this is also a fact that the Brazilians have given it a new definition.
Till date seven countries have won the champion's title till date. Out of these seven countries Brazil is the only country who has participated in all the tournaments and has also been the winner for five times. Besides being the winner for five times, Brazil has reached till semi-finals in three tournaments and also became the vice champion in two.
As Brazil is the only country to have participated in all the FIFA World Cup tournaments till date, the is fondly called "The Little Canary" by its fans. In the following tournament which is to be held in 2010 in South Africa, Brazil team will be a big challenge to all the other teams, as the team has really worked hard and improved its game even better. It is in full josh to face the challenge.
The 2014 FIFA world cup tournaments are decided to be held in Brazil itself. The country has hosted the tournament previously in 1950, when it reached till final but lost to Uruguay in the finals. The country won the bid for 2014's tournament against the other countries like Argentina, Colombia and Chile. The decision has given nightmares to the other teams as it will be a real tough job to defeat such a strong team on their homeland.
