The Complete Book of the World Cup 2002 by Cris Freddi

This guide to the World Cup is fully updated to cover all tournaments from 1930-98, with match-by-match articles featuring the biggest names in world football, plus results from every game played. The statistics include team line-ups, goalscorers, stadiums, referees, crowd figures and exact dates, plus an authoritative records and statistics section, as well as detailed reports of every game played in the finals. From the brilliant Italian team, winners in 1934, and Geoff Hurst's hat-trick for England in 1996 to the fabulous Brazilian team of Pele, Tostao and Jairzinho of 1970, and the 1998 French side of Zidane, Deschamps and Desailly - all the fabulous memories and defining moments are captured in this book.
