Owner's Description
The 1994 FIFA World Cup (wereldbeker in Afrikaans) was the 15th FIFA World Cup, held in nine cities across the United States from 17 June to 17 July 1994. The United States hosted the tournament despite their lack of a national top-level football league. The tournament was the most financially successful in the tournament's history; it broke the World Cup average attendance record with nearly 69,000 spectators per game, a mark that still stands today.The total attendance of nearly 3.6 million for the final tournament remains the highest in World Cup history.
Brazil beat Italy 3–2 in a penalty shootout after the game ended 0–0 after extra time, the first World Cup final to be decided on penalties. This made Brazil the first nation to win four World Cup titles. Greece, Nigeria and Saudi Arabia made their first-ever appearances in the finals.
