This book was amazing in all ways becuase it start's from the vary first World Cup in Uruguay 1930. To the last World Cup in Germany 2006. Every player that played in the world cup's from 1930 to 2006. Also includes the matches, all the scores, all the players,from every year in this book. This is the book that no soccer fan can miss out in their collection!! How Pele in Mexico 1970 gave Brazil it's 3rd World Cup or Zidane in France 1998 that gave France it's first World Cup title. And we can't forget Ronaldo with it's magnificent trick's and eight goals. That gave Brazil it's 5th title in Japon - South Korea 2002.

This book also say's that only four teams so far in this competition have hold four World Cups in the history of socer (futbol). This competition has been since 1930, it's first World Cup with thirteen teams only becuase they didn't have enough resource to travel around to the other part of the world. Only now the World cup is played with 32 teams it used to be played with only eighteen teams. The "Estadio Azteca"the Aztec stadium is the most remember because Pele with it's magnificent goals and trickesthat gave Brazil the ticket to fight the final with Italy. And no one can forget the were the orginal "ole ole ole ole" in Mexico 86', it was Mexico againstWest Germany in the semi final stage. It was bing played in Monterrey the scored was zero it went to penalties,West Germany won 4-1 to Mexico. This book is the best, it"s like I was there in the time it happend!!!!
